125 years! That’s how long people have been volunteering for The Salvation Army here in Aberdeen and the surrounding communities. You have been helping your community in so many ways it is hard to collect them all in a few short words. Everything from cooking and serving meals, sorting donated food and items, purchasing school supplies and Christmas gifts, ringing bells, helping neighbors in fires, floods and tornadoes, visiting with seniors with a monthly food box, and countless other ways. 

We cannot continue to do this without your help!  Would you consider taking the time to help us lift up our community?  It could be 125 years but from 1:00 to 5:00 once a week (or even once a month) is most likely.  Any and all assistance is most appreciated and will make impact beyond what one can see.
