Be a HERO and Donate to Salvation Army




If you don’t know what to do with your old clothes don’t throw them away you can donate it to the Salvation Army. As the saying goes one man’s rubbish is another man’s treasure! If you’re not too sure then read the following information about Salvation Army and why they are well known across New Zealand and in the Pacific.  

Salvation Army have been helping family and children for more than 125 years, trying to make a difference in New Zealand and caring for those that are less fortunate. Hunger, homelessness, social isolation, addiction, loneliness, unemployment when people are facing hardship, they are compelled to do something about it. Not only in New Zealand but they are also helping Pacific Islands through donations.

They follow closely the orthodox beliefs of the Protestant Church. Every person becoming a member (soldier) of the Army signs a covenant which amongst other things acknowledges their acceptance of these truths which are the foundation for Salvation Army beliefs and practices internationally.

Helping families around New Zealand is important to them, Salvation Army Family Stores are a great way to recycle clothing, furniture, household goods, toys and books, and help struggling households. The goods sold make a huge different to people’s lives and provide much-needed relief in tight household budgets. Profits from goods and clothing sold through the Family Stores support community work.

Your generosity helps them make a difference by building better communities. With the different programs they offer such as Kiwis Helping Kiwis, Food Banks, Family Stores, Cherish a Child Sponsorship Programme and Overseas Development just to name a few.

With this said Salvation Army helps others with the support from the community so please donate your old clothes or anything else that you don’t use anymore. You can also donate your creations for others to use if you want to.

Donating your belongings to help others is the way to go J
