MESSAGE FROM OUR LEADERSHIP<br />

Advisory Board Chairperson<br />
DEAR FRIENDS OF THE SALVATION ARMY<br />
One of the things that keeps humanity alive, especially in an environment of change and challenge, is hope. Martin<br />
Luther King, Jr. said, “If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving...” <strong>The</strong> Salvation Army in <strong>The</strong><br />
<strong>Bahamas</strong> works hard at being an agent of hope. For us, hope is not clinging to a wish that something good might happen,<br />
it is working towards the expectation and outcome that good will happen.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Salvation Army calls hope, love in action. It is what happens when one lonely woman is given warm shelter for the<br />
night; when a struggling family is offered support; when a troubled youth receives guidance at a critical moment; when an<br />
unemployed father of a sick child is given help and encouragement. Each day, <strong>The</strong> Salvation Army in <strong>The</strong> <strong>Bahamas</strong> offers<br />
hope to many: the hope that someone cares; that all is not lost; that there will be a brighter, better tomorrow!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Salvation Army considers itself a humble steward of your generosity. We want to express our deepest gratitude to all<br />
of our donors, supporters and volunteers. Your continuing support allows us to meet our community’s evolving needs.<br />
God Bless You!<br />
