SAN LUIS, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – These are some of the things you can find at the first Salvation Army center in San Luis, expanding its social support network in the region. This space will support families in vulnerable situations.
The Salvation Army is a religious and social assistance service that provides help to people in a variety of situations, including poverty, homelessness, addiction, and other social issues.
This help center in San Luis will provide food pantry services and financial assistance in case of emergencies.
“We are very excited to have this customer-choice food pantry here in San Luis. Our amazing volunteers and staff are here to help people make the best choices. When clients come, they will have to register and provide identification for all household members and proof of address only the first time they come, and then they can return every 30 days to receive a box of food,” said Amber Herzog, leader of the Salvation Army center in San Luis.
Donations came from Walmart, Riedel Construction and the Yuma Rotary Club, among others. Thanks to them, the opening of this center was made possible.
The office is located at 1910 Cesar Chavez Blvd.
