My week at the Salvation Army educating clients about cholesterol was a great opportunity and I learned a lot. I never realized that the Salvation Army does that much for our community and we don’t even know about it.

The Salvation Army was a life changing experience that I will always take into account when listening or taking care of individuals not only in the hospital but in everyday life. I am glad I got the opportunity to experience the Salvation Army with CARING. I hope we can continue to make a difference in the lives of the poverty and the homeless. Hopefully more people will continue to find jobs and housing everyday to lessen the people who are homeless and in poverty. The Salvation Army is providing wonderful care to these
