Meet Charley

Charley was new at school, new in town, and new to the country. But when he stepped into The Salvation Army Kroc Center for the first time, he discovered friends, community, and brand new passions.

Your donation helps kids like Charley find their after-school home and a place to belong.

Meet Dave

After his first encounter with the Salvation Army during the Korean War, Dave’s four decades as a board member have been a labor of love and he’s seen first-hand the impact that your generosity has on the community.

Your donation provides the vital services that the Salvation Army has become known for to families in our community.

Meet Joan

Joan had never been a part of anything like the Kroc Center before, but she knew it was important to stay active. Her husband was an avid hunter and fisherman, but Joan needed something to be hers. She found it at the South Bend Kroc Center.

Your donation helps people stay connected, even when connection is difficult.
