The Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church, has been
supporting those in need in His name without discrimination since 1865. More than 31
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 for the homeless, and opportunities for underprivileged children. About 82 cents of
every dollar raised is used to support those services in more than 5,000 communities
nationwide.
