$200K check dropped in red kettle
$200K check dropped in red kettle. Tamala Edwards reports during Action News at 4:30 a.m. on December 19, 2017.

People often donate a few dollars when they pass a Salvation Army bell ringer. But a mystery donor in Minnesota went above and beyond.

The Salvation Army received a check for $200,000 in one of their Red Kettles.

The gift gives a big boost to the Twin Cities Salvation Army, which says donations are down 10 percent from last year.

The donor wishes to remain anonymous.
