SMCKC December Breakfast: The Salvation Army’s Online Red Kettle, December 7
It's a common sight in the holiday season. The Salvation Army's famous Red Kettle (b. 1891) embodies the spirit of seasonal giving. But how did this global charity translate its famous kettle to an online world?
Mark Van Baale, E-Communications Manager at The Salvation Army Kansas/Western Missouri Division, and his @salarmymokan team explain how the Army took a tried-and-true concept and recreated it for a world of online fundraising and social media. Learn how the Army is enabling users to create their own socially enabled Red Kettles and fill them with funds from friends, family, and coworkers.
Note: To better streamline processes, SMCKC is now requiring online pre-payment for events with an admission charge. Admission to the breakfast is $5, or pay a flat fee of $15 that includes meal, drink, admission and gratuity. Register and purchase your tickets on EventBrite.
