Do people realise that the collection taken at Christmas by the Salvation Army goes to the band?
Also - never buy a War cry - 10% goes to their divisional headquarters for admin, 30% to pay for the printing of the paper and 60% to pay for the running costs (heating and lighting and ministers salary) of their local Corps (church building).
Salvationist's themselves finacially give very very little and most members do no social work as folk think, but spend their time in music.
Last year, a wonderful lady made a Salvation Army Christmas Kettle impression out of felt. She then had it professionally framed. It was then donated to the Punxsutawney Weather Discovery Center right here in the United States of America. Everything was done of behalf of the entire Salvation Army all over the world
It bothers me when i see homeless on the street, this shouldn't happen this day and age. Ive been looking for work for a long time but no success. Im living with my parents at the moment and im 28 year old man i cant do this for ever and im worried i might end up being homeless myself when i get older. Only thing i can do is keep looking.

Hi Quaffle.
The music is 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen', a traditional Christmas carol.
Hope that helps.
