     Decatur, Illinois — This July, The Salvation Army in Decatur is working alongside Walmart to bring a special “Christmas in July” Red Kettle campaign to both Wal Mart locations in Decatur, offering shoppers an opportunity to give back during a meaningful summer activation.

     On Friday, July 17th, shoppers visiting Wal Mart North on Prospect Drive and Wal Mart East on E. Maryland Ave. will see The Salvation Army’s red kettles stationed outside the store at both doors, where donations will support individuals and families in need across the Decatur and Macon County Area. Funds raised will help provide meals, shelter, utility assistance, and other critical services throughout the year. This initiative reflects the ongoing relationship between Walmart and The Salvation Army, focused on meeting local needs and strengthening communities nationwide.
