The Salvation Army in New Jersey is gearing up for the holiday season with its iconic red kettles, looking for donations, volunteers and toys for children.
Salvation Army Is Taking Service to the Streets
Most people know The Salvation Army is there for anyone who needs emergency assistance. However, not all people in need will reach out, and some don’t have a way to physically get to The Salvation Army for the help they need. In Quincy, The Salvation Army is taking its services on the road to seek out people in need.
On Wednesday, Feb. 24, from 4-6 p.m., The Quincy Salvation Army will begin the Canteen Ministry. Employees and volunteers will load up a vehicle and drive the streets to serve food, blankets, and personal care items to those who are hungry, homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless.
