The Salvation Army Western Pennsylvania Division is approaching its holiday fundraising goal, but so far no mysterious benefactor has dropped gold coins in any red kettle.

Nicole Harrell, Salvation Army director of marketing and public relations, said Thursday that the Red Kettle Campaign across the 28 counties in the division had reached 66% of its $2.294 million, or nearly $1.51 million. The campaign concludes Christmas Eve.

She said donations can also be made virtually at any time by visiting salvationarmywpa.org/LoveBeyond.

She added monetary donations can now be dropped off directly at PNC Bank branches throughout Western Pennsylvania through Dec. 31.
