The Salvation Army Burlington Community and Family Services launch their annual Kettle Kick off to the Holiday Season. It runs November 15-December 24 at 18 different locations across Burlington. It is the main fundraiser for The Canadian Salvation Army each year and helps people in the community with food, clothes, Toys for Christmas, food for Christmas, Backpacks, Camp, energy and rent assistance, shelter, and other programs.

Some history:
Funds raised through donations made at our Christmas kettles, help provide direct, compassionate, hands-on service to almost 2 million people each year in Canada. In our own community last year, we helped 2,200 people. This year our target is $350,000

Volunteering for The Salvation Army means you can make a difference — not just in the lives of others, but in your own life journey as well. With the help of dedicated Kettle volunteers, we are able to fulfill our commitment of providing support to those in need, many volunteers also find meaning for themselves in giving back, learning new skills and building connections in their community.
