My money is “white privileged” & Christians need to apologize per the Salvation Army ‘woke’ propaganda .... not one ‘white Christian’ penny of mine is going in their kettles, ever again.
Anecdotally, in past years, I’ve seen people putting in their change or a dollar in kettles as they finish shopping & leave the stores - this year, I have not observed one single person donating. I asked my mom about her observations - she has not seen a single donation either. I’m surprised donations are only down 50%
Most people use plastic cards in the large stores, they don’t carry loose cash. In the past when you had pocket change you would just drop it in the pots. Today you have receipts but no change.
