PUTNAM — The Putnam Rotary Interact Club has been coordinating students from local schools, organizations and the local community to assist the local Salvation Army in their Kettle Campaign since 1997 raising more than $200,000 for the northeast corner of Connecticut.
This year the club is off to a great start with more than 25 students from Woodstock Academy, Putnam Science Academy and Killingly High School participating, according to Rotarian advisor Roberta Rocchetti. Rotarians and members of the Rotaract Club have also participated along with their family members.
Look for the bell ringers Dec. 8, Dec. 15 and Dec. 22 at the Putnam Stop & Shop, Putnam Walmart, Putnam Price Chopper and Putnam Supermarket and please make a donation. The money received in the kettles goes to the local Salvation Army office to be distributed to TEEG, Daily Bread and to others in need.
