The Salvation Army Western Pennsylvania Division is grateful for the support, compassion, volunteerism and financial assistance that our neighbors provided to those most in need this holiday season, as $2.2 million was raised during the 2021 Red Kettle Campaign: Hope Marches On.
Because of your generosity and kindness, we can continue to show God’s love to our neighbors, serving those most in need, all year long. During fiscal year 2021, the Salvation Army Western Pennsylvania served 365,432 individuals in need, provided 227,710 meals and 163,467 grocery orders, supported 5,126 housing/rent assistance cases and 2,987 utility assistance cases, and provided 38,473 nights of shelter and stable housing. Your support makes a difference in the lives of neighbors right in your local community. For that we thank you.
Today, the need is still great, so we ask that you keep those in prayer who may still need help as we begin 2022 with renewed hope and optimism. Whether you need support or want to support, we are here for you. The Salvation Army remains steadfast to love our neighbor, and yours.
Thank you and may God bless you.
