Salvation Army Meets Creighton Family ChallengeThe Salvation Army raised monies to reach the Creighton Family Challenge during bell ringing on Dec. 11 and 18.
The challenge was to match $10,000 and the kettles collected $10,803.23.
This was the second annual Creighton Family Challenge that helps to serve others, not only at Christmas, but throughout the year in Kosciusko County.
Businesses and individuals also collected 143 hams to meet the Hundred Ham Challenge for the Choice Pantry. This was the seventh annual event to collect hams to give to individuals and families in need along with other food and hygiene items.
“The Salvation Army is grateful to the Creighton Family for their support,” said Envoy Ken Locke, administrator. “We also appreciate everyone who brought in hams to give to others in our Choice Pantry!”
