Echelon's Red Carpet Kettle Club

Echelon invites you to an exclusive VIP reception: the Red Carpet Kettle Club! This VIP reception is designed for rising leaders interested in giving back and getting involved in their community. You'll have the opportunity to: • Network with Philadelphia business leaders, influencers, government officials and young professionals. • Enjoy a free hot cocoa and cider bar + appetizers while you get to know Echelon and The Salvation Army team. • Participate in fun holiday connection-building activities! • Walk down our red carpet and get photos with special guests, celebrity bell-ringers and local news channels! Dress in your warmest holiday “slay” as this event is outdoors (there will be heaters). This event follows the Salvation Army's annual Red Kettle Kickoff which is part of the opening weekend of Christmas Village in Love Park. It marks the beginning of the organization's most iconic street-fundraising campaign and welcomes the public to celebrate the start of the giving season.
