Rapid City Mayor Jason Salamun is leading the charge in promoting the spirit of giving in the community. Recently, the Mayor made stops at a food drive organized by AFSCME and a donation collection for the Salvation Army. The food drive, in its third year, has seen remarkable success with over 2,100 pounds of food and $1,100 raised for Feeding South Dakota. AFSCME Local President Sean Jewett expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from the community. Mayor Salamun also spent an hour ringing the bell for the Salvation Army, urging others to follow his lead in giving back during the holiday season. He emphasized the generosity of Rapid City residents and encouraged everyone to share the Christmas spirit with those in need.
The Red Kettle campaign by the Salvation Army is ongoing and in need of more volunteers to ring bells and collect donations until Christmas Eve. Mayor Salamun’s efforts to engage with various charitable organizations and encourage public participation are a testament to the giving nature of Rapid City. He hopes to inspire others to contribute to these causes and make a positive impact in the community.
