Baton Rouge Salvation Army Meets the Every-Changing Community Need
The Salvation Army feeds everyday at their facility on Airline Highway. This service has increased significantly since Gustav.
Tomorrow, The Salvation Army will be using their thrift store to distribute clean up kits, food boxes, and other basic social services. The distribution will take place at 7361 Airline Highway in Baton Rouge. The needed materials will be distributed Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to noon—as long as supplies last.
The Salvation Army warehouse facilities have received four (4) truck loads of supplies and more is expected.
For details on canteen feeding locations or Salvation Army distribution, contact The Salvation Army at 225-355-4483.
The Salvation Army asks people who want to help those affected by Hurricane Gustav to visit www.salvationarmyusa.org or call 1-800-SAL-ARMY. Monetary donations are needed to meet survivors’ most immediate needs. A $100 donation will feed a family of four for two days, provide two cases of drinking water and one household cleanup kit, containing brooms, mops, buckets and cleaning supplies. The Salvation Army is currently not accepting donations of clothing and furniture for storm victims, please forward these donations to The Salvation Army Family Store nearest you.
