The Salvation Army

Nationally, nearly 36 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year. The Salvation Army has been meeting people's needs in Colorado since 1887. For more than a century, the helpless, hopeless and needy have relied on The Salvation Army for food, clothing, shelter, encouragement, comfort and prayer. In addition to these traditional services, Salvation Army programs offer education, childcare, elder care, gang intervention, athletics, character building, alcohol and substance abuse rehabilitation as well as response to emergencies and natural disasters for the benefit of the children, families and communities of the Rocky Mountains. Those interested in supporting the work of The Salvation Army can donate at 1-800-SAL ARMY or on the web at http://www.IMSALVATIONARMY.ORG
