Metro Councilwoman Vicki Aubrey Welch (D) 13 will be on hand to not only spread holiday cheer but help raise money for the Louisville Salvation Army.
“Many of us may have read about donations being down for this holiday season,” says Welch. “The Salvation Army does important work all year around but they really need our help during the holiday season.”
Welch will man a red kettle for the Salvation Army on Friday, December 14th from 2:00 to 3:00pm at the Wal-Mart at 175 Outer Loop.
Wal-Mart will match the final amount raised by Welch from the bell ringing up to $250.
“I am happy to do what I can to help any group that helps the less fortunate during this time of year,” says Welch. “While I look forward to meeting people and thanking them for their generosity, I hope every one will take a moment to drop something other red kettles around Metro Louisville.”
