Edmonton's 2010 Christmas Kettle Campaign launch this year was held at City Hall, with Mayor Stephen Mandel proclaiming November 18-December 24, 2010 'Christmas Kettle Campaign Season in Edmonton, Alberta's Capital City'. Members of Edmonton Temple Band helped get everyone in to the Christmas spirit, playing a selection of Christmas carols.

This year's goal is $450,000, which we need to raise before December 24. You can make a donation in many different ways: visit a kettle in the malls, donate online at www.SalvationArmy.ca or call 1-800-SAL-ARMY (725-2769).

Money raised through the Christmas Kettles allows The Salvation Army to provide families with basic necessities like food, clothing and shelter. The money also helps fund programs such as counseling, food assistance, seniors’ programming, children’s camps and life and parenting skills.

We are still looking for volunteers in Edmonton, so if you have some time that you can donate, please call 780-423-2111 for more information on how you can get involved.
