Salvation Army Christmas Committee – The Carl J. DiCapo Family

The Carl J. DiCapo family will serve as honorary chairs for the annual Salvation Army Christmas Committee this year, to honor the memory of the emeritus board member. Thirty years ago, Carl DiCapo served as the co-chair for the committee, which helps to raise funds for critical programs and services during the holiday season. He was also instrumental in creating the Salvation Army Food Box program, which provided provisions for a holiday meal to families in need. The official kick off to the Salvation Army Kettle Season is November 15th.
