One such story is that of Doug, a dedicated volunteer who has been ringing Kettle bells during the Christmas season for 17 years. Doug\u2019s journey with us began with a simple yet powerful inspiration: his father\u2019s experiences during World War II.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-9373 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/salvationarmy.ca\/britishcolumbia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/Volunteer-Victoria-Golf-Tournament-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/>Doug&#8217;s father, a veteran, often spoke about the comfort and support he received from The Salvation Army during the war. He specifically remembered the warmth of receiving socks, a small gesture that meant a great deal during challenging times. This memory stayed with Doug, ultimately inspiring him to give back to the community after retiring from the RCMP in 2005.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Volunteering has become an integral part of Doug\u2019s life, especially during the Christmas season. He dedicates three days a week to ringing bells at a local grocery store, where he has developed meaningful connections with the community. Doug shares that the appreciation people express when they see him volunteering is deeply rewarding. It\u2019s these moments of connection and gratitude that fuel his passion for giving back.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Doug\u2019s story highlights the importance of volunteering, especially now. As he notes, there are many people in need, including youth who require shelter, encouragement, and food. The Salvation Army play a crucial role in providing these essential services, and volunteers are the backbone of our efforts.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Volunteering has also strengthened Doug\u2019s relationship with his wife, Susan. Together, they have shared many volunteer experiences, from working at the Rainbow Kitchen in Victoria to participating in community festivals. This shared commitment to giving back has brought them closer together, enriching their 53-year marriage.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Doug acknowledges that balancing volunteering with family visits can be challenging, but the rewards far outweigh the difficulties. His children have even joined him in his volunteer efforts, ringing bells and making donations. This family involvement underscores the ripple effect of Doug\u2019s dedication, inspiring others to contribute in their own ways.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We at The Salvation Army encourage everyone to consider volunteering. Whether you have a few hours to spare or can commit to a regular schedule, your contribution can make a significant difference in the lives of those we serve. As Doug eloquently puts it, volunteering is not just about giving back; it\u2019s about enriching your own life and making your Christmas more meaningful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">You don\u2019t have to wait until Christmas to get involved. There are many ways you can support your local Salvation Army throughout the year.
