Project #53

The last project of 2008 consisted of assisting the Salvation Army with bell ringing at the Wal-Mart in Alabaster. This project was a lot of fun (once we got used to talking to people). The group consisted of Courtney W, Dianna T., Josh P., Sidney M., Andrew W., and recent youth members Liz H., and Jordan M., and former youth Kenneth S., We laughed, cut up, and rang the bells for over five hours and collected a total of $340.04 for the Salvation Army (which averages to about $65 per hour in donations). Several shoppers commented on the enthusiasm of the group and how special it was to hear "Merry Christmas" from someone. As we finished the day it was interesting to note that three of the four people who where left also worked on the very first project on January 1st. Congratulations on a job well done.
