Shoppers will hear bells ringing and cheerful voices singing from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday, December 3
as Bossier Schools faces off in friendly competition with Caddo Schools for the 9th Annual Red Kettle
Challenge to benefit The Salvation Army of Northwest Louisiana.
The Red Kettle Challenge is a favorite holiday tradition for Bossier Schools that brings out scores of students,
employees and their families to man the iconic red kettles and encourage shoppers to donate in order for The
Salvation Army to help our neighbors in need.
Last year, more than $19,000 was raised in a single day through the combined efforts of the two school
systems, making the Bossier vs. Caddo Schools Red Kettle Challenge the most successful single day of giving
for The Salvation Army during the holiday season.
Bossier Schools encourages the public to visit any one of its 11 kettle sites and give generously as the district
shares the spirit of giving. Locations being staffed include:
