It’s officially #NationalSalvationArmyWeek and it’s extra important this year. We are focusing on raising awareness around the emergence of pandemic poverty. Pandemic poverty refers to the vast number of Americans who have been pushed right to the edge of poverty because of COVID-19 and are just one missed bill away from slipping into homelessness and despair. In an effort to combat pandemic poverty we are encouraging you to setup a $25 monthly donation to prevent your community members from succumbing to poverty. You can give here: salarmy.us/emp25

It’s been a year since lockdown was announced and we have come so far. Thanks to our donors, we have been able to: Serve 684,613 individuals across the Empire State Division Provide 438,148 food boxes, equal to 15,133,131 meals Provide 100,723 nights of shelter... We saw a massive increased need for our services with COVID-19 and we were able to meet them because of the generous hearts that gave to The Salvation Army. The need is still there. Every little bit helps us continue to serve. Head over to bit.ly/empcovid to donate.

Mental health has been a struggle since the onset of the pandemic. Donna, like many others, came to The Salvation Army in search of help and was connected with teletherapy services to get back on track. Share her story so others struggling with mental health can get the help they need. http://ow.ly/Decz50DXClF
