Who We Are

The Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church established in London in 1865, has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination for 130 years in the United States. Nearly 30 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year through the broadest array of social services that range from providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless and opportunities for underprivileged children. 82 cents of every dollar spent is used to support those services in 5,000 communities nationwide.

What We Do

The Salvation Army is here in your community to serve those in need as a neighbor. Our local commitment is directed by our ability to know and learn what the community needs most. Your support is valued not only to keep our programs and services available, but also to help us see where we need to focus our efforts in order to do the most good. By giving to The Salvation Army you help define the greatest need in your community. Being ready to serve all who come to our door is part of The Salvation Army mission. Our food pantry is a key part of this preparedness and it is run largely alongside community support which allows us to be able to always provide meals to those in need at a moment's notice. Hunger can be an issue for anyone at any time, and so The Salvation Army's pantry is always stocked to serve all. Anyone is welcome as a walk in, so please come by to receive a meal!

  •  Open Monday - Wednesday  9 a.m. - 3 p.m. 

 The Salvation Army's Pathway of Hope initiative provides individualized services to families with children who desire to take action to break the cycle of crisis and vulnerability that repeats generation after generation. It seeks to address the root causes of poverty in addition to The Army's history of compassionate serving. By helping families overcome challenges like unemployment, unstable housing, and lack of education, we can lead families down a path toward increased stability and, ultimately, self-sufficiency.

  • The Pathway of Hope Approach Includes:  Catalyzing community collaboration in service of shared clients.  Moving families from crises and vulnerability to stability and eventually self-sufficiency, tracking family progress along the way; Bringing all The Salvation Army's internal resources to bear, aligned to the goals of clients; Focus on hope as a measured outcome, which represents the distinctly relational, spiritual outcome that The Salvation Army seeks in the work it does; Strengths-based case management service

 It is important to us at The Salvation Army that every child has the same opportunities to grow and learn as any of their peers. This is why we are so proud to offer many different summer camp programs for kids of any background to be able to join. Some of the themes our camp cover include: craft/arts, music, character/leadership, math/science, and gospel or ministry. Each one of these presents a safe and loving environment for youth exploration into these subjects that they can otherwise be prevented from experiencing.
