salvation army

One of the best ways to get rid of unwanted stuff around your house is to donate it to a local charitable organization, like The Salvation Army -- but they won't take everything.

The Salvation Army wants to "Rescue Christmas," so it's starting its annual fundraising campaign earlier than ever.

This time of year is all about spending time with family and friends, being thankful for what we have, and especially for the little ones, spoiling our loved ones with gifts. Some families are struggling though, and it's the children that suffer -- so why not help to make a child's holiday a little brighter this year?

It's that time of year...good feelings and generosity! Nothing makes me feel better during the holiday season than being able to give a little to those in need, but according to a Digital Journal report, some people are being amazingly generous. Apparently, in those Salvation Army red kettles, officials have found donations of gold coins, silver dollars, and in Shawnee, Kansas, a solitary diamond!
