The Salvation Army,
an international movement,
is an evangelical part
of the universal Christian church.
Its message is based
on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by
the love of God.
Its mission is to preach
the gospel of Jesus Christ
and to meet human needs
in His name
without discrimination.
Mission Statement With Our ThanksFrom the Advisory Board Chair
From the Area CommanderFor 110 years in Mecklenburg County Salvation Army officers, staff members, and volunteers have touched the lives of people in need through acts of service, fulfilling our mission to serve basic human needs in the name of Jesus Christ. Because of the support of people like you, our work continues. We are here today and we will be here as long as we are needed.
It is a privilege as Area Commander of The Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte to serve our community. As long as our neighbors need a helping hand, our “Army of Compassion” will have a mission, serving as a reflection of God’s bright light. Thank you for adding your light to ours and helping The Salvation Army shine as a beacon of hope in our community.
May God bless you and keep you. —Major Bobby Lancaster, Area Commander
In many neighborhoods in this community The Salvation Army is ministering to those in need. It may be shelter. Or food. Or a place for children and youth to play. It may be help with addiction. Or help with homework. It may be learning to sing or dance or play the trumpet. It may be learning jobs skills and finding a way out of trouble, or digging out of a storm-ravaged house.
The needs vary from person to person and from day to day, but the mission of The Salvation Army never changes; we serve wherever and whenever we can, without discrimination. We serve with joy in the name of God, seeking always to do the most good.
The Salvation Army could not do its work without the support of ordinary people — people like you and me. When we add our voices, our time and our resources to the mission, we help the fine men and women of The Salvation Army make a difference in countless lives. We, too, are doing the most good. Thank you for being there. — Mr. Tom Wilkens, Board Chair

Last year The Salvation Army disaster relief teams—
made up of officers, staff, and volunteers— provided
food, shelter, clothing, and spiritual comfort for 264,054
disaster survivors across the nation. We have offered
such aid since 1900, and we stay as long as we are
needed in each community.
The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC) is funded through donations sold at our Family Stores. The ARC serves 117 men at a time, providing housing with work, group, and individual therapy to help these men break the chains of addiction, recognize the value of their lives, and learn skills essential for their transition from chemical dependency to independence and self-sufficiency. Men with addiction pay no fee for this help, but give back through their hard work as they complete the program. Last year, 444 men participated in the ARC program, with 130 graduating.
Emergency Disaster
With rising costs for housing, health care, and
transportation, many elderly and disabled residents of
Charlotte-Mecklenburg find it impossible to get by on limited
income and no savings.
Located in Charlotte’s beautiful historic Fourth Ward, Booth
Garden apartments is a safe and affordable living option
for low-income older adults and disabled individuals. Our
goal is to equip their independence and preserve their
dignity by offering chances to socialize and take care of
personal business via weekly trips for essentials.

Christmas Assistance Center of Hope ShelterEach year, The Salvation Army sets up a Christmas Bureau where families can register their children
ages 0–12 (Angel Tree) or older adults (Silver Bells) for assistance. Caring people in the community then
select an angel or silver bell from trees set up across the city, shop, and return the items to our Christmas
distribution center. Meanwhile, volunteers ring bells at one of 80 Red Kettles locations from Black Friday
to Christmas Eve, funds from which support year-round programs.
For 90 years, The Salvation Army has been providing shelter for women and children in Mecklenburg County. For reasons as varied as aging out of foster care to lost jobs, families without housing can find refuge—and resources—at our Center of Hope emergency shelter, located two miles north of Uptown Charlotte. Last year, an average of 350 women and children slept in the shelter every night, and veterans found a place to regroup.
As one of three Coordinated Assessment intake sites for the county’s Continuum of Care, the Center of
Hope offers an umbrella of services based on a “Housing First” model:

Salvation Army Boys & Girls ClubsSince 1934 The Salvation Army Boys & Girls Clubs have brought hope to children ages 6–18 in
troubled neighborhoods. People often ask us how the partnership works between us and Boys & Girls
Clubs of America (BGCA). Here’s how: BGCA is a national organization made up of a federation
of independent, local Club corporations. Each local Club must meet standards of operation and
program implementation in order to secure and maintain its charter with BGCA. We hold the only
charter to operate Clubs in Mecklenburg (6) and Union (2) counties.

The Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte 2014 Year in Review
I am doing the most good. I am hope. I am compassion. I am strength. I am faith.
I am doing the most good. I serve a community. A region. A world. I serve heroes. I serve victims. I serve a sovereign God.
I am doing the most good. I am an Army. Drafted by the Creator. Commissioned by a man who defied death. My enemies are despair and destruction. My ammunition is grace and mercy. My allies are generosity and benevolence. I am an Army. Helping others be all they can be.
I am doing the most good. I feed empty stomachs and hungry souls. I rebuild ruined homes and shattered lives. I am a bottled water and an encouraging smile for a weary firefighter. I am an answered prayer. A silver lining. A second chance.
I am doing the most good. I am a humble steward of other people’s generosity. I am a grateful courier of a stranger’s kindness. I am the faithful executor of other’s goodwill. I take my responsibility seriously. I am blessed. I am a blessing.
