Who we are
In 1865, William Booth, aided by his wife Catherine, formed an evangelical group dedicated to preaching among the people living in the midst of appalling poverty in London's East End. In addition to preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, Booth became involved in the feeding and shelter of the hungry and homeless and in rehabilitation of alcoholics. Thus, The Salvation Army was born.
What we do Today
The basic social services developed by William Booth have remained an outward visible expression of the Army's strong religious principles. In addition, new programs that address contemporary needs have been established. The Salvation Army in Spokane is unique in its programs. Sally's House, our emergency foster-care home, and Stepping Stones, our answer to the cycle of poverty and homelessness, are one-of-a-kind programs within the United States.
In a world where its frantic pace and constant development advances often overshadow the problems that remain in our communities, we endeavor to remain at the forefront of social services. The Salvation Army will always be there to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, and love those who are hurting.
