Join KIC as we partner with the Salvation Army of Milwaukee County to join their long-standing holiday tradition of ringing bells to fill the red kettles!
Activities
Families will engage with community members by offering cheerful holiday greetings, singing carols (if you’d like), and ringing the red kettlebells. This is a very fun and joyful family activity!
Impact
Children will experience how their actions help fill the red kettle and bring smiles to community members. They will also see that many small donations create a large one and everyone’s contribution makes a difference.
When & Where
Saturday, Dec. 14 from 10 a.m.-Noon (morning shift)
Winkie’s in Whitefish Bay
629 E. Silver Spring Dr.
Families can sign up for a 30-minute shift. Within 24 hours of registering, you will receive an email with a Google doc to sign up for your specific shift. If you have some, kindly bring your own noise maker/bells and note there may not be enough red aprons for all family members.
