The Salvation Army’s Annual Appeal 2010
Dear friends
The Salvation Army, as both a Christian church and a charity, has always sought to help the whole person and believes every person to be of value. We are one of the largest providers of social welfare provision after the Government, offering Christian love and comfort without discrimination, to the most vulnerable in our community, such as people without a home, families trapped in poverty, lonely older people and those suffering domestic abuse
Local Salvation Army members, friends and volunteers will be out in the community going door to door from Monday 13th September right through to the end of the month to raise vital funds to support this work across the nation through our Annual Appeal, where 92p out of every £1 donated directly helps people in need
Our theme for the Annual Appeal this year says something very important - Believe in People! We believe in the people who live in our Lifehouses, the new name for our residential centres, where we support homeless men, women and families and those with addictions. We believe in those for whom we care in our older people’s care homes and at our community centres. We believe in the many thousands of families, children, young people and adults we support through our social community programmes
Please watch out for our authorised collectors with their donation envelopeswho will only be asking for cash donations. If we do not meet you personally you may still make a donation by posting it through anytime either at our Citadel on Tolhouse Street (next door to the library) or in our Charity Shop at 167 King Street. Your donation can be accepted here anytime from 09.00 – 15.30 Monday to Saturday. You can also donate through our website at www.salvationarmy.org.uk/annualappeal
If you are able to support our Annual Appeal we will be very grateful and so will all those we help and in whom we believe. Thank you and God bless you
