CHRISTMAS KETTLE FAQ’s
What is a Bell Ringer?
A Bell Ringer is someone who stands beside the iconic Salvation Army Christmas Kettle and receives donations from passers-by. They ring bells where permitted to subtly remind people of those in need at Christmas in our community. Kettles are typically located in malls and outside retail stores from mid-November to December 24th.
How much time is required?
Bell Ringers typically stand by a kettle 2 to 4 hours at both indoor and outdoor locations. Ideally it is best if prospective volunteers can commit to 8 to 10 hours throughout the course of the Christmas Kettle Campaign which runs from mid-November to December 24th.
Can our group sign up together to be Bell Ringers?
Absolutely! Your team, staff, organization or school group can sign up to host a Kettle. You can choose to host a kettle throughout the duration of the campaign or just for a day. A sign can be created for the Kettle stand recognizing your group’s partnership with The Salvation Army. For more information on signing up to volunteer as a group please email us here.
