Beacon Cancer Care employees ring bells for Salvation Army in Elkhart

Money raised will help provide food and other services to local families

ELKHART, Ind. (WNDU) - Employees from Beacon Cancer Care put on masquerade masks today to support the Salvation Army.

They rang bells, handed out candy canes and collected donations in a golden kettle outside the Hobby Lobby on South Main Street.

Marissa Morales, manager at Beacon Cancer Care Elkhart, said staff members work in health care because they want to help and support others.

“I think especially in health care, in cancer care, we get into this field because we have a desire to help and a desire to support, so while we love to do that within our normal day to day, it’s really nice to get out into the community and continue to extend that help,” Morales said.

The money raised will help the Salvation Army provide food and other essential services to local families in need.
