Motivated by the love of God, as a leader in the Christian faith-based human services, the Salvation Army is committed to serving the whole person - mind, body and spirit - with integrity and respect, using creative solutions to positively transform lives.

The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church.  The message is based on the Bible and the ministry is motivated by the love of God.  Their mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.

The Salvation Army - Greene County Service Center offers services Monday - Friday from 8:00 am - 3:00 pm.  The Center provides a variety of free programs, including the free clothing warehouse, emergency food boxes, rent and utility assistance, disaster services and Produce to the People.  They also offer children's programs like Camp Allegheny each summer, Treasures for Children and the Kid's Birthday Club.

Camp Allegheny is situated on 110 acres, about an hour north of Pittsburgh, just outside of Ellwood City.  Accredited by the American Camp Association, the curriculum at Camp Allegheny is focused on Christian principles and promotes an awareness of God in nature and a relationship with him.   Children are hosted in a safe, nurturing environment, closely monitored by trained and capable staff.  A host of activities are offered, including: nature study, swimming, pioneering, arts and Crafts, archery, hiking, organized games and much more.  For more information, call 724-852-1479 or log onto campallegheny.salvationarmypa.org.  


Not long ago, the Salvation Army helped a local family that was struggling due to medical issues.  A single father with two children was suffering from congestive heart failure and was no longer able to work.  With support from the Greene County United Way, we were able to help them through the Emergency Utility Assistance program.  That help allowed them to make ends meet until his disability determination was approved.  Dad was so grateful as he was able to focus on his health and taking care of his two children.

Salvation Army - Greene County Service Center is always looking for volunteers to help in the free clothing warehouse, Monday through Friday from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm.  They also need Produce to the People volunteers to pass out food as well as Bell Ringers during their Kettle Campaign.  Volunteering is one way that you can make a difference within your community.

To learn more about the volunteer opportunities, please call 724-852-1479.
