The Fight Against Pandemic Poverty

Across the country, millions of Americans are reeling from the ongoing impacts of the pandemic. Faced with challenges including job and income loss, hunger, and the inability to pay bills, they’re being forced to make difficult decisions between basic necessities.  

For many, these choices could mean the difference between “home” and “homeless.”

This issue — pandemic poverty — is having a profound impact on the stability of American families:

  • 2020 marked the most significant jump in poverty since the government began tracking it (8 million people have fallen into poverty)
  • 63% of Americans have been living paycheck to paycheck since the pandemic began 
  • 2020 marked the worst year on record for job losses at 9.4 million

Coronavirus Covid-19: How you can help

 

The essential services that we provide on a year-round basis – homeless shelters, food pantries, disaster relief, veteran’s services and others – are for the benefit of our country’s most vulnerable people. Because of a lack of information and access to good hygiene, homeless families and those living in poverty have been hit especially hard by the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.

We know concerned Americans are looking for ways to help during this crisis. The Salvation Army will continue to open our arms, hearts, and doors to those who need us, but our homeless shelters and food pantries are quickly reaching capacity. We are at work finding alternatives and solutions to this reality, like mobile food service and deliveries to families in need who are sheltering in place.

Please consider helping us help your neighbors in need during this crisis. You can rest assured that your donation will stay in your own area.
 

Q: How can I donate money to support Coronavirus COVID-19 relief efforts?

A: To support The Salvation Army, a monetary donation ensures we can continue service delivery in your community. Financial contributions allow us to quickly respond to changing needs, as well as support local economies through the purchase of goods. Every dollar gives hope to those living in poverty during this pandemic.

Your donations to The Salvation Army help us serve the most vulnerable members of your community.
