Salvation Army issues alert, donations have dropped substantially

“There are many reasons why both financial and toy donations are down this year, not the least of which is likely pandemic fatigue and concerns about employment and the future,” said Colonel Cindy Foley of the NW Salvation Army Division. “We are actually trying to provide food, shelter, toys and clothing to double the number of families we served last Christmas, and in the midst of the growing need we are seeing fewer people donating at our virtual and physical kettles.”
Not only is the nonprofit organization short on donations, they also are in desperate need of bell ringers to staff the red kettles seen at businesses around the country.
“The situation is dire, and we are asking our generous supporters in the region to donate to the virtual Northwest Red Kettle as well as make donations at every physical kettle in whatever way you can.”

Ultimately it really is a shame, because SA is a good organization that does a lot of good.
I don't blame people for being reluctant to move forward with them - which makes their conduct on the race stuff all the more appalling.

Eat a dick. Beggars can’t be choosers and you very clearly chose poorly.

Never a good idea to insult the people you rely on for donations

I feel bad about this, because the Salvation Army really does do good work.
I just can't support an organization that hates me.

I've only seen one ringer so far this season and it was outside the local Kroger today.
He was ringing his little heart out, singing.
It did my heart good to see not one person drop anything in the bucket.
I smiled at him and made eye contact. I think he read my mind.

Someone had a sheet of messages expressing their displeasing the racial bullshite they put out. They were on a sheet you cut out and would fit after cutting out a in the kettle.

Siding with the worst tippers in the world was indeed an odd choice for a charitable organization.

Sorry that my white arse helped bell ring for you in the past.
Shame on me for being white.

Would love to see a demographic breakdown of who donates to SA.
