Mission Statement
The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the Universal Christian Church. Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.
Feeding Program Goal
Meet the immediate needs of hunger and shelter during the lunch hour.
Food Pantry Program Goal
Provide respite in times of financial strain so gains can be made elsewhere. The food pantry is a stepping stone on the path to self-sustainability.
I’ve been coming to this feeding program 10+ years and it’s a very great help for me. My disability pay is not much and this program helps me to get hot nutritious meals which also helps me physically. Much of my friends come to this program too and they need help too. Life would be much more difficult to survive without this kind of services. ~George Alvarez
