The Salvation Army Center of Hope - Winston Salem, NC

Description: The Salvation Army's Social Service Ministry operates several unique programs in the local community such as being the only Emergency Shelter for homeless families and single women in Forsyth County. Shelter clients are assigned a case manager with the goal of achieving permanent housing for the clients. Where appropriate, counseling includes referrals to other agencies to assist residents with vocational training, family-skills, domestic violence, physical or mental illness, unemployment and other underlying causes of homelessness. The Salvation Army's Center of Hope prepares and serves hot meals daily on-site daily to its residents. A hot Breakfast is also served to anyone in the community in need, 365 days a year.

Donation Requests by The Salvation Army Center of Hope: After working hard to achieve their case management goals, finding employment and a place to live, clients often leave The Salvation Army with only their clothes and what few personal possessions they were able to bring with them. Project Welcome Home provides for each single woman or family a basket of “housewarming” goods to help them get settled in their new home. You can participate by donating some or all of these items: Laundry basket, paper towel, toilet paper, dish detergent, dish cloths, hand soap, sponges, food storage containers, Windex/bottled cleaners, kitchen garbage bags, candles, picture frames, broom and dustpan and Bible. In addition, donations of toiletry items, diapers and canned food are always welcome.
