"We will continue to serve those hopeless and hurting while we refocus and reorganize our programs to provide the most effective assistance possible within our resources,” Lloyd said.
The Salvation Army wishes to thank its' faithful donors and encourage others to come along side us during these trying economic times in Doing the Most Good for those less fortunate amongst us. Your partnership is the key to our ability to serve those in need.
