UMATILLA COUNTY — The Salvation Army Pendleton Corps is seeking additional bell ringers for its 2021 Red Kettle campaign. The charitable organization needs bell ringers in Pendleton and Hermiston.

Money raised helps ensure area families have a happy holiday season, providing funds for gifts, as well as hot meals, shelter as well as year-round social services. Red Kettles and bell ringers often provide a visual and auditory reminder the Christmas season is just around the corner.

The Salvation Army invites people to apply in person Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at 150 S.E. Emigrant Ave., Pendleton.

The Red Kettle season kicked off Nov. 19 and runs through Dec. 24. It operates Monday through Saturdays. People must have their own transportation, be on time and display a welcoming appearance to customers.
