2025 Ring the Bell for the Salvation Army

Ringing in the Holidays: Rotary's Salvation Army Bell Ringing Event

The holiday season is nearly upon us, and with it comes one of our club's most beloved and meaningful annual traditions: ringing the bell for The Salvation Army!

What is it?

Each year, members of the St. Clair Rotary Club, along with friends and family, volunteer their time to stand outside Neiman's Family Market and ring the iconic red kettle bell.

Why do we do it?

• A Great Start to the Season: It's a fantastic, festive way to kick off the holiday spirit and connect with our community.
• Supporting Local Needs: Every dollar dropped into the red kettle at Neiman's stays local to help fund The Salvation Army's essential programs and services right here in St. Clair County throughout the year. These funds provide critical assistance for food, shelter, and utilities to our neighbors in need.
• Service Above Self: This event perfectly embodies the Rotary ideal of "Service Above Self," allowing us to be visible, active participants in local charity and goodwill.

How Can You Help?

We need you to sign up for a one-hour shift (due to the number of timeslots, we need you to sign up for one of more timeslots) to make this effort a success! It’s a fun, easy, and incredibly impactful way to give back.
