Help Us Fill Our Online Red Kettle

The Salvation Army has created its own Online Red Kettle and we need help getting it filled. While the regular bell-ringers will be out ringing the bell starting on November 21st, the Online Red Kettle enables us to start bell-ringing a little earlier without needing a lot of manpower. Please help us fill our Online Red Kettle by clicking here and making a donation today.

You can also help by sharing this information with your friends and family and posting it on your Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Adopt a Memphis Angel Online Through JC Penney’s Angel Program

The Salvation Army and JC Penney have partnered to give you the opportunity to adopt an Angel online. Starting on November 2, go to www.jcp.com/angel (Web page live starting November 2) and type in the zip code for The Salvation Army (38105) to choose from a variety of Angels located in Memphis. You will be able to search based on age, gender and wish list. JC Penney will email you the details and the deadlines for your Angel.

You don’t have to purchase your gifts from JC Penney. However, if you do purchase all your gifts from JC Penney, FedEx will ship your gifts to The Salvation Army Area Command for free. If you choose to purchase your gifts elsewhere, you will be responsible for making sure they are delivered to The Salvation Army Area Command located at 696 Jackson Ave. Memphis, TN 38105.

We hope you enjoy the convenience of this national partnership. Our Angel Trees will be at Wolfchase Mall, Oak Court Mall and Carrefour starting November 21st.
