How to Donate

   



For Many, The Salvation Army is a constant source of hope in a world of constant change. In the United States alone, over 28,875,019 individuals were served by The Salvation Army during the past year. 60,138,948 meals and 10,256,080 nights of lodging have been provided to those who needed assistance. Through the tireless efforts of Salvation Army officers, staff members, volunteers and supporters like you, The Army is able to serve in virtually every region in the nation and around the world.

To support the significant work of The Salvation Army, it is important to initiate multiple fundraising programs. Gifts may be in response to a remembrance of a kindness that The Army showed someone. Sometimes it's in response to a disaster and the donor wants to support the emergency needs at that time. Sometimes it's in the form of a memorial gift for a loved one or in memory of a special occasion. But every gift is appreciated and enables our Army to serve others.
