Oshkosh Salvation Army Red Kettle bell-ringing concludes with 3 days of match challenges

OSHKOSH — The Salvation Army of Oshkosh’s bell-ringing season will conclude with Match Day Weekend Dec. 21-23.

The three days will include a chance to maximize donations made to Red Kettles.

Kicking off the weekend Dec. 21 is a $15,000 match challenge sponsored by JJ Keller Foundation.

Dec. 22, Advanced Asbestos Removal of Oshkosh will offer a match challenge.

And Dec. 23 features a match challenge from Wisconsin Public Service Foundation.

Further, an anonymous donor in Oshkosh is doubling all $20 bills donated to Oshkosh-area Red Kettles on Saturdays during the Red Kettle season. That means the season-end Wisconsin Public Service Foundation Match Day challenge Dec. 23 will be the only triple challenge day of the season. Every $20 bill dropped in an Oshkosh-area kettle that day will result in a $60 donation to The Salvation Army of Oshkosh.
