Annually, KCOT volunteers set out to ring bells at the Red Kettles for the Tempe Corps of the Salvation Army. Money collected from this effort goes to buy toys for kids, clothing for the homeless, and funding for social service programs. KCOT members Linda Spears, Lawn Griffiths and Mac Bohlman are also members of the Tempe Salvation Army Corps Advisory Board.
