 Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church, 
has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination 
since 1865. Nearly 33 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,

dollar raised is used to support those services in nearly 9,000
