Salvation Army Volunteer Scores Her Own Colts Victory From Radiothon
Salvation Army volunteer Evelyn Higgins leads the Colts out on the field to meet the Titans at Lucas Oil, Jan. 2, 2010.
It comes around each December – one of our biggest fundraisers. Radiothon. During this fast-paced, fun-filled weekend of radio chatter and hourly surprises, listeners call-in to pledge their support. This year’s gig was sponsored by the Colts, thus many of the prize packages included game tickets, autographed helmets/balls, and such. One deserving hourly winner was none other than longtime Salvation Army volunteer Evelyn Higgins.

Sponsors make Apple Fest success
The Salvation Army’s 7th annual Apple Fest was easily our best to date. And we couldn’t have done it without our most successful partnerships yet. Applebee’s, GFS Marketplace, Ricker’s and Kroger provided all the food and beverages so lunch dollars really could do the most good for the women and kids at our shelter.
Thanks to all of our community parnters who supported us with booth, table and promotional sponsorships as well – the Emmis family of stations (93WIBC, 1070 The Fan, B105 and Hank FM), WTHR-13, Complete Office Supply, Adrian Orchards, Two Men and a Truck, Huntington Bank, ComedySportz, Cartridge Specialists INK, Graphicon, Unique Home Solutions, the American Legion, Avon, HVAF and Indy Custom Cornhole. Bandwagon put on a great show, too!
And thanks to our community for coming out and putting those lunch dollars to work for a good cause! If you’d like to learn more (or buy one of those great t-shirts) about our programs that support our neighbors struggling with homelessness and abuse, go to HomelessnessBites.org
