ABOUT THE BOOK
What happens at death? What horror lurks in the dark? What if ghosts are not what they seem? What if aliens are not what they appear to be? What if hallucinations were not just “in the head?” This book is full of strange and unique stories. There are monsters, heroes, plot twists, and other worlds. All these stories are different. They all have the same underlying theme, the mystery of human existence.

Each Christmas, you’ll see The Salvation Army’s iconic Red Kettles with volunteers ringing their bells outside storefronts and businesses across our community. The dollars raised during this campaign at Christmas supports our mission work all year long – which is why it’s critical we receive your support. We offer a Red Kettle sponsorship opportunity for your business to receive recognition at high traffic locations across Greenville County. Here are some key benefits of sponsoring The Salvation Army of Greenville’s Red Kettle Sponsor campaign this season: Brand Visibility: The Red Kettle campaign is highly visible during the holiday season, both online and at various locations throughout the community. Sponsoring this Red Kettle allows your business logo and messaging to be prominently displayed on the collection stand, increasing your brand’s visibility. Community Engagement: The Salvation Army has a long-standing presence and reputation for helping those in need. Sponsoring the Red Kettle campaign demonstrates your commitment to this community and positions your business as a socially responsible organization. It provides an opportunity to engage with employees, customers and community members who value charitable initiatives. Positive Association: Supporting an organization that helps individuals and families in crisis fosters goodwill and demonstrates your company’s commitment to making a difference in people’s lives. Marketing and PR Exposure: Sponsoring the Red Kettle campaign provides opportunities for media coverage, press releases, and social media mentions, generating positive publicity for your business. The bells will ring November 11 – December 24, Wednesday through Saturdays, from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. at a variety of locations across Greenville County.
