The PenaVega's Light ESB to Honor the Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign

Ring, ring!

The Empire State Building's world-famous tower lights lit up red and white to honor the Salvation Army's Red Kettle campaign on Dec. 2.

Actors Carlos and Alexa PenaVega visited the Empire State Building to flip the ceremonial light switch, tour the immersive exhibits, and take in New York City's best views from the iconic 86th and 102nd Floor Observatories.

The Red Kettles campaign is the Salvation Army's largest annual fundraising campaign, with donations of more than $104 million for homeless services and poverty-fighting programs in 2023.
