Donations Management
12
We do NOT do donations management on every disaster. Sometimes the best answer is: Currently, The Salvation Army is not accepting in-kind donations from the general public for disaster relief operations. However, The Salvation Army depends upon your donation of used clothing and other items to support local programming. Please consider donating your used clothing to your local Salvation Army Thrift Store.
