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.”
I will never contribute to them again.
I would commonly spend cash for Christmas, I mention this because my change every time was what was left over from a $20. If the spending was $101, the Kettle would get $19. A typical year would be about $59-39 for Sallys charity. This year, no bueno.
What happened was the Salvation Army was Christian and had the highest rating for the donations going to the cause so they became a target.
If you haven’t noticed, most good, solid institutions are being destroyed.
We ALWAYS give a nice donation to The Salvation Army, but NOT THIS YEAR!!! GO WOKE....GO BROKE!!
Go woke, go broke!
Yep. Breaks my heart.
Straight to comments, because many of us are of like minds. I enjoy reading other’s thoughts. It is unlikely that there is anything SA could say or do to sway me.
Thankfully, God forgives, but never forgets. Sure , I forgive them should they change their now obvious position, but i will also not forget.
Right??!!
Every single year for the past 20+ years, I would love to hear the bell and would seek out the Salvation Army kettle to put in a minimum $10 bill. No more.
I am not a racist. I am not a criminal. Apparently, SA thinks that I am both.
“If you haven’t noticed, most good, solid institutions are being destroyed.”
And people are walking away from them just like they walked away from ancient Rome that was the largest city in the world at the time. It went from a million inhabitants by 180AD to 10,000 within 300 years.
It’s similar to how the Jews literally walked away from Egypt.
It’s also similar to how people walked away from the Tower of Babel some 6,000 years ago. The Tower of Babel was man’s first attempt at collectivist world government. After people walked away they spread all over the Earth.
Man’s second attempt at collectivist world government today will end in disaster for them. After man walks away from them and their system collapses, man will go to the stars.
“...White donors need to offer ‘Sincere Apology’ for their collective Racism…”
I’ll offer my apology by not giving a F’ing penny.
It’s time people realize that the Salvation Army is a church that does charitable work, not a charity.
Impeccable timing. Couldn’t wait a month to start this nonsense? Really stupid of them.
Much in the way that spoiled children tend to abuse their possessions, Leftists eventually get around to wrecking everything they run.
Let them know why.
Now Jesus would be flipping over those red kettles.
White folks fled Detroit faster than that. Went from over a million Whites in 1960 to just about 56,000 in 2010.
Yeah, things are rough all over.
That’s right! I don’t want them to be hypocritical! I’ll keep my filthy money . Thank you very much.
“Their own Staff,,,”

I don’t see any difference.
