The Salvation Army’s Door County extension bucked national trends, having a record-setting Red Kettle campaign this past holiday season. That allows the organization to provide assistance as necessary to area residents caught up in the economic effects of the global coronavirus outbreak. Volunteer Tom Mullinix says the chapter is fortunate to have cash-on-hand as charitable giving is drying up quickly.
The Salvation Army’s primary mission in Door County is to provide mortgage, rent, and utility assistance.
