LUBBOCK, TEXAS - Leading up to the holidays, the Salvation Army chapters in the South Plains and Panhandle kicked off their Red Kettle Campaigns, continuing their decades-long local partnership with United Supermarkets throughout the communities.

Started in 1891, the Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign is one of the most iconic charitable events in the United States and is synonymous with the Christmas season.

The United Family has been part of the kick-off for the Red Kettle fundraising campaign for more than a decade. In addition, every United Supermarkets, Market Street and Amigos location in Lubbock will play host to one or more Red Kettle stations. The campaign goal this year is $200,000 and it will run through Christmas Eve.
