(PORTLAND, Ore.) December 19, 2011 – It was a frenzy of people in red aprons, kettles and dogs at lunchtime on Friday, December 16th, 2011 as the Rotary Club of Portland participated in its annual Rotary Bell Ringing Day. The Rotary Club of Portland has been ringing bells for The Salvation Army for over 76 years, and this year was a big year for them. Not only did they raise $20,895 to help support The Salvation Army, they had a record number of people out supporting and ringing a bell.

The Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church established in London in 1865, has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination for 130 years in the United States. Nearly 30 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year through the broadest array of social services that range from providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless and opportunities for underprivileged children. 82 cents of every dollar The Salvation Army spends is used to support those services in 5,000 communities nationwide.
