Greenwood, MS - The Salvation Army Greenwood MS Corps and Scott Petroleum are teaming up to spread hope and joy this holiday season through the annual Red Kettle and Angel Tree campaigns. Together, the organizations are committed to serving families and individuals in need across 14 counties in the Mississippi Delta region.
The partnership was celebrated during The Salvation Army’s holiday campaign kick-off event, where Scott Petroleum presented a ceremonial check to highlight their continued commitment to local families. The sponsorship will help ensure that the Red Kettle and Angel Tree programs continue providing critical assistance, from gifts for children to essential resources for families, throughout the region.
“We’re so grateful for Scott Petroleum’s partnership and their investment in our community,” said Captain Johnny Anthony, Corps Officer of The Salvation Army Greenwood MS Corps. “Their generosity helps us continue meeting the needs of families who rely on these programs each year.”
“The Salvation Army’s mission to support local families truly reflects what we care about as a company,” said Mike Tuttle, CEO of Scott Petroleum. “We’re proud to play a part in helping make the season brighter for our neighbors across the Mississippi Delta.”
The Red Kettle Campaign helps fund year-round programs such as food, shelter, and emergency assistance, while the Angel Tree Program provides clothing and gifts for children and seniors who might otherwise go without during the holidays.
Together, The Salvation Army Greenwood MS Corps and Scott Petroleum hope to inspire others to give generously this season and support the work being done to meet needs in our local communities.
