Drives
Would your large group consider coordinating a donation drive in addition to volunteering? Donation drives are an invaluable resource to fill our unmet needs for food pantry, backpacks and school supplies, towels and washcloths, twin-size sheets and pillowcases and art supplies for the after-school program. We ask that all donations be new. If you are interested in organizing a drive to collect any of these items, please contact Deb Crye for specific lists of the items we need.

Event Volunteers
The Salvation Army of Dane County traditionally sponsors four annual events to benefit the many programs and services it supports throughout the year.
Christmas in July is a week-long campaign to fill the Food Pantry shelves. Because of the theme, many Dane County grocery stores and other retailers graciously host the Red Kettles in mid-July.
Tin Cup Lunch is a simple lunch of soup, bread and beverages at a local hotel. It is our opportunity to honor individuals and organizations that have made notable contributions through their services and donations and to tell the good things that are happening at The Salvation Army of Dane County because of their support.
The Christmas Kettle Campaign is the traditional Red Kettle fundraiser that provides major financial support for The Salvation Army of Dane County. Beginning in mid-November and concluding on Christmas Eve, hundreds of volunteer Bell Ringers and generous donors make this event a success each year.
The Gus Macker 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament is our newest fundraising event that features friendly competition in a family-oriented atmosphere. This event is being developed to to supplement our regular fundraisers.
We are in need of volunteers to assist in various duties required for the execution of these events, such as setup and tear-down. If you are interested, please contact The Salvation Army for dates and more information.
