William Booth created the Salvation Army for a lot of reasons. All lot of churches in Victorian times were all about image, if you were poor you either couldn't go, or had a seat pretty much on the floor, William made the Salvation Army a place where everyone was equal and could worship together.

Also he wanted his church to be helpful to others, some churches then would do nothing for others but the Salvtion Army was to also be a sort of charity, in the name of god.

The international mission statement of The Salvation Army states, "The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian church. Its message is based on The Bible. Its ministry is motivated by love for God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in his name without discrimination."
