The Salvation Army is recruiting volunteer bell ringers throughout Northwest Indiana. Volunteers will sign up through our Register to Ring page and select up to four-hour blocks to ring the bell and earn donations from the public outside of retail outlets such as Walmart and Strack & Van Til.
Volunteer bell ringers are more than an icon of the Christmas season; they're the difference between an empty kettle and one that raises the funds that sustain the help The Salvation Army provides all year long. When you volunteer to stand at a kettle, you're not just ringing a bell...you're changing lives!

The Salvation Army Porter County works with No Child Hungry Northwest Indiana to provide shelf-stable food for low-income K-8 students on the weekends. Families struggling financially often rely on their children eating at least two meals a day at school. As such, the weekends ands school breaks can be stressful for families who are struggling to provide food for their families as it is.
No Child Hungry packs weekend food bags, called Buddy Bags, for over 100 children in the Porter County school systems so that families do not have to worry about what their children will eat on the weekends. The Salvation Army is looking for volunteer drivers to deliver these bags to elementary and intermediate schools in Chesterton.
Pickup is at the Church of the Four Seasons in Winfield on Wednesdays any time between 8:30AM and 3PM.
Deliveries are Thursdays from 9:30AM and 12:30PM, so volunteers will need to arrive by 8:30AM or 9AM to pick up.
