2026 Red Kettle Kickoff Sponsorship Luncheon

The Salvation Army needs community-minded organizations like yours to sponsor Red Kettle locations and help maximize impact. The 2026 Red Kettle Campaign goal is $140,000, a target driven by the growing needs of local individuals and families. Rising costs for housing, utilities, and groceries continue to place significant strain on hardworking households, making support more critical than ever. We invite you to join us in meeting this need and strengthening the safety net for our neighbors throughout Emmet, Charlevoix, and Antrim Counties.

The kickoff luncheon is a 1-time event; however, you can sponsor Red Kettles throughout the holiday bell-ringing season. If you pledge your support at or prior to our Kickoff Luncheon, you will be mentioned in our 2026 Red Kettle press release.
