Salvation Army Raised $130 Million During 2008 National Fundraising Campaign

"This year we reached a new generation of donors we've never been able to reach before through the use of high-tech tools like cashless kettles, the Online Red Kettle, and the iPhone," said Commissioner Gaither. "We also started using social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, which allows friends and family of our supporters to donate more easily than years past via the internet."
