💙 COMMUNITY DONATION DAY — TOMORROW AT 10 AM! 💙

We’re looking forward to seeing our community tomorrow morning for our Sheetz donation distribution at 10:00 AM!

A few important reminders:

⏰ Please do not line up before 9:45 AM.
🚗 Please help us keep the entranceway clear so everyone can safely enter and exit.

As always, we never know what or how much we will receive until the donations arrive, so we appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding. We’ll do our very best to share what we have with our community.

🥫 Please visit the FOOD TABLE FIRST.
We also have some items available on our Giving Table and clothing available in the gym. We encourage everyone to check out all of the available resources after visiting the food table.

A huge THANK YOU to Sheetz for their generous weekly donations and continued support of our community! 💙

We also want to thank Giant Eagle for their generous donations, as well as all of the wonderful donors who continue to contribute items to our Giving Tables and clothing area. Your generosity makes such a difference!

🙏 Thank you to everyone who helps make it possible for us to serve our community. We are grateful for the opportunity to be here for our neighbors and to share these resources with those who need them.

If you need anything or have questions, please see Major Waddell or Ana. Lt. Lisa will return Monday, August 14.

We look forward to seeing you tomorrow! 💙
Thank you for allowing us to serve our community!

We will have Sheetz available as usual tomorrow at 10 am please do not line up before 9:45 am and please do not block the front entry when you do arrive. Remember Sheetz is available to the community based on what donations we receive that morning from Sheetz. We never know what or how much we will receive that day. Please be mindful that it’s first come first serve and that if there is low donations that morning we will adjust how many items each household can receive.

Also, when waiting in line or coming into the building please be respectful to the other clients, Salvation Army Staff, and volunteers.

On Sheetz distribution days please pick your food items first then proceed to th giving tables and clothing area.

We love serving the community and thank you for your cooperation!

Please Respect Our Salvation Army Dumpster

A friendly reminder to our community: the dumpster located at the Salvation Army is a private dumpster and is for Salvation Army use only.

Please do not place household trash, furniture, bags, boxes, or other unwanted items in or around this dumpster unless you have been specifically authorized by the Salvation Army to do so.

When others use the dumpster, it can quickly fill up, leaving the Salvation Army without the space it needs for its own waste. Unauthorized dumping can also result in additional disposal costs, overflowing trash, unsanitary conditions, and extra work for our staff and volunteers.

The dumpster is provided for the exclusive use of the Salvation Army to help us properly manage our operations and keep our property clean and safe.

We kindly ask everyone in the community to please respect the property and do not use the Salvation Army dumpster for personal disposal needs. If you have items or household waste that need to be discarded, please use the appropriate public or private disposal resources available in your area.

Thank you for understanding, respecting our property, and helping us continue serving our community. ❤️

🏠 There is a 5-item limit per household.

Most importantly, we want to say THANK YOU! 🙏

Thank you to our amazing community, donors, local businesses, volunteers, and supporters who continue to give, contribute, and show up for our neighbors week after week. Your generosity makes all of this possible. 💕🙌
