A Welcome Message from our Officers

Captains2012

Dear Friends,

September 2012 marks the 125th year of The Salvation Army's presence in Ada County. During it's local tenure, The Salvation Army has provided help to hundreds of thousands of Idahoans in need. Today, the Army provides crisis aid, food, clothing, furniture, utility bill assistance, a school for pregnant and parenting teens, a center for worship, and emergency and transitional housing. We remain grateful for the continued generosity of our community in assisting those less fortunate. We welcome your visit to our website, where you'll see how The Salvation Army is meeting the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of struggling families and individuals through a variety of programs and services.

Sincerely,

Captain John Stennett, Boise Corps Officer and Treasure Valley Coordinator

Welcome to the home page for The Salvation Army of the Treasure Valley in Idaho. Our service area includes Boise, Caldwell and Nampa, as well as outlying locations in Ada and Canyon Counties.
