COVID-19 RELIEF

The Salvation Army helps those affected by Covid-19

As the coronavirus COVID-19 has evolved into a pandemic, we are monitoring the situation daily. Safety is of utmost priority, so we have ramped up efforts to slow the spread of this virus among our employees, volunteers, and the homeless and other vulnerable people we serve.

Better Together

There is no quarantine from hunger. There is no quarantine from a lost job. There is no quarantine from poverty. If you or someone you know is struggling due to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are here to help.  Click locations at the top of this page and type in your zip code. Reach out to your local Worship and Service Center for assistance with putting food on the table, paying the rent, utilities, and more. The Salvation Army Western PA Division is here for you – we are better together.

We are working with local, state, and federal government and health authorities, including participating in situation awareness calls with federal partners like FEMA, CDC, DHS, and HHS. We are developing new hygiene and cleaning protocols to help keep safe our residents and others who depend on The Salvation Army’s programs and services to survive.

We also anticipate a significant increase in need of emergency assistance for low-wage employees facing layoffs due to COVID-19. The support we provide – rent/mortgage, utility, and food assistance, among others – will become more urgent as the situation evolves.

We need support from our communities to continue to meet the daily needs of these vulnerable populations. Your donations will continue to help us respond to the situation.
