 The Salvation ArmyElizabeth Duncan Director of Development Established in 1865 in London, operating in the United States since 1880, and in Memphis since 1900, The Salvation Army’s mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination. At the center of our work in Memphis is a common belief that all people have a resilient capacity to make positive change. We believe in the healing power of compassion, love, dignity and respect and these principles guide our actions and words. We value the transforming power of God and the salvation that comes from knowing Christ as our personal Savior. And we believe that enduring change comes from holistic ministry – to mind, body and spirit. Our purpose, simply put, is to share God’s love by serving others. On any given night in Memphis, over 200 men, women and children live in a Salvation Army facility. Other programs include a food pantry and utility assistance, a 3-star licensed childcare center, disaster services, Angel Tree, the community intake/assessment program and a housing hotline program coordinating homeless services throughout the city. A self-supporting drug and alcohol program and two worship and activity centers complete their ministry.
