Kettle Campaign Needs Volunteers

The Salvation Army needs volunteers for its annual Kettle Campaign getting underway November 19.

Kettle Coordinator Laura Raiger says they're looking for a wide variety of volunteers, whether its students looking to fill their required community service hours or someone older just looking to help out.

Raiger says $118,000 was raised during last year's campaign and its hoped they can reach that again this year.

She says all the money raised stays in Sarnia-Lambton.
