This year I met a young woman named Alison who used to sleep on the steps of this building. She refused shelter, insisting that she felt safest on these steps. She spent most of her time completely drunk. We told her every day that Jesus loves her, and that He has more for her life than alcoholism and abuse.  We would give her blankets, shoes, and food, and she began to come to our Sunday church services.  Last November, Alison finally enrolled in a Salvation Army drug rehabilitation program, and today she is sober, working, loving Jesus, and learning to serve others in His name.

Mentions

In a city where an average 1.3 million New Yorkers are food insecure, Hope for New York, P.S. Kitchen, The Salvation Army, and City Relief have come together to show the strength and power of our network by addressing hunger.
Our annual homelessness outreach was a success this year in reaching many unhoused neighbors! For one Saturday, over 240 volunteers gathered at The Salvation Army on West 14th to serve in various roles, including street outreach and on-site hospitality. 
Every year, our affiliate partners share stories of how they meet the specific needs of New Yorkers in need of hope.
