Providing resources to families year-round
"It's been years since my kids have had new shoes for the school year. They were so proud to wear them on the first day."
Thanksgiving Assistance - At this time, our Thanksgiving registration is full.
The holidays provide a sense of tradition to many and that is especially true at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Each year during the Thanksgiving season, The Salvation Army serves thousands of families in need, as well as the hungry and disadvantaged in our community. The details vary by location, but Thanksgiving programs may provide a turkey dinner with all the trimmings, takeout lunch bag, small gifts and toys for your children, and more. In some areas, prepared Thanksgiving meals and baskets are delivered by volunteers to families in need, including seniors or shut-ins, who can't pick up the food themselves.

Christmas Assistance - At this time, our Angel Tree assistance program is full.
The "miracle" of Christmas is repeated over and over again through the joy of caring and sharing. Among the many programs provided by The Salvation Army, those that particularly bring joy at Christmas are the Adopt-a-Family/Senior, Angel Tree and Holiday Food Baskets. Together, these programs help to ensure that hundreds of lower-income families in our community have an opportunity to receive gifts, have gifts for their children and funds to purchase food for a Christmas dinner celebration.

Back-To-School Supplies
Starting a new school year may be a thrill of many kids, however it can also cause anxiety and stress for families when they are faced with the expense of buying new clothes, shoes, and other supplies. Many families struggle with paying for the items, clothing, and school supplies that their children need, and many kids unfortunately go without basic back-to-school necessities. This is where The Salvation Army can help. The Salvation Army helps thousands of kids across the country with new clothes, supplies, and confidence for the new school year. Through local and national partnerships, we offer many resources to qualified families.
