What: The Salvation Army’s Red Kettle has become an integral part of the Christmas scene, with millions of dollars donated nationwide each year to aid needy families, seniors and the homeless. Knoxville’s Red Kettle Campaign lasts just 30 days, but the money raised will help nearly 30,000 people in the Knoxville area all year round.
