Each holiday season, The Salvation Army engages in the tradition of "staffing the kettles" to promote the plight of the needy in the Peoria area. This practice is critical to The Salvation Army's cause, as the money it raises supports the organization’s programs for the rest of the year. Thanks to the generosity of thousands of Tri-County area residents and businesses, The Salvation Army can continue to provide valuable services such as the Family Shelter, food pantry, children's programs and the Safety Net men's shelter.

During the holidays children receive Toys for Tots gifts, clothing, food and other donated items. Senior citizens receive gifts and visits.
