The Salvation Army gives hope and support to vulnerable people in 400 communities across Canada.
Our social service activities include: hunger relief for individuals and families through food banks and feeding programs; shelter for people experiencing homelessness and support for those needing housing; rehabilitation for those struggling with addiction; long-term care and palliative care; Christmas assistance such as food hampers and toys; after-school programs, camps, and school nutrition programs for children and youth; and life-skills classes such as budgeting, cooking for a family, and anger management.
With more than 200 Thrift Stores, The Salvation Army operates one of Canada’s largest national clothing recycling operations.
Although proceeds from the sale of goods help fund our many social programs, the Army also provides items free of charge to individuals or families who have been referred by our social programs and other agencies.
