If you were hungry and you couldn't food or if you needed shelter and you didn't have a house, how would you feel? Pretty helpless. Well the Salvation Army makes sure that the feeling of helplessness never happens. They make blanket, serve food, provide shelter, and do anything they can to support those in need.
They do what God tells them to. God wants us to serve others as if the people on need were him, not another homeless person you find on the street!

What exactly are you asking? Are you refering to the actual London Army or East London Mission from which The Salvation Army originated?
The Salvation Army mainly reaches their goals by the generosity of others. Donations keep the organization going allowing them to continue to provide programs and services.
By integrating risk management into Armywide mission goals
When William Booth and his wife started the Salvation Army in 1865, it was originally called the East London Christian Mission. The story goes that at a meeting of its leaders, someone said that they were like a great volunteer army, to which William Booth, the Army's founder, replied something like: I am not a volunteer for I am compelled to do what I do. We are not a volunteer army, we are a Salvation Army. In 1878, the organisation became known as the Salvation Army. They adopted a uniform and adapted Christian words to popular tunes sung in the public bars.
The elements of the army system model typically include the mission (goals and objectives), structure (organization and resources), processes (operations and procedures), people (personnel and leadership), and culture (values and norms). These elements work together to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the army in achieving its objectives.
The Salvation Army was originally known as the Christian Mission, the name was changed to Salvation Army in 1864 . It was founded by William and Catherine Booth.
The Salvation Army's website refers to itself as "The Salvation Army" or the full name is "National Salvation Army."
Astronaut Charles Duke, who was the lunar module pilot for Apollo 16, is known for his involvement with the Salvation Army. He has spoken about the organization's impact on his life and the importance of faith and service. Duke has participated in various charitable activities and promotes the Salvation Army's mission in his public appearances.
A Salvation Army envoy is a layperson who serves in a leadership role within The Salvation Army, typically with responsibilities similar to those of a pastor or minister, though they are not ordained. Envoys often lead local congregations, oversee community programs, and engage in outreach efforts. They undergo training and are appointed to their positions, contributing to The Salvation Army's mission of helping those in need.
