Stand with the Sam: A Benefit for The Salvation Army Good Samaritan Health Clinic

About the event

A gala times ten, this event is centered around the idea that fun is a necessary component to successfully building relationships, and sharing the many ways that The Salvation Army Good Samaritan Health Clinic is making life better for thousands of people in our community. 

This year, we're inviting businesses across Rochester to decorate a Red Kettle Stand. Each stand will be presented during the event, a red kettle placed on it, and the "Peoples' Choice" winner will be the stand with the most donations placed in the kettle on that stand! 

Games and prizes will also be scattered across the event space for our community members to enjoy. Food and beverages will be offered at stations, as opposed to a full sit-down gala. Our hope is to host a fun, memorable event that lifts the spirits of everyone in attendance!

The event will take place from 5:30-8pm on Friday, April 17, at the Hilton Hotel Mayo Clinic Area on East Center Street, Rochester, MN.
