The Salvation Army Named One of America’s Favorite Charities
The Salvation Army is one of America’s favorite charities, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s 2021 report. The organization secured the second spot out of 100 charities.
The Chronicle of Philanthropy’s annual ranking evaluates data from financial statements to determine which cause-driven organizations earned the most cash and stock contributions from individuals, foundations, and corporations.
During 2020, The Salvation Army saw a more than 30% increase in fundraising in the wake of extraordinary circumstances and devastating need.
The Salvation Army has not stopped working to provide help and hope — no matter the cost — for more than 22 months since the pandemic began. This year, it estimates it will need $175 million — almost 50% more than raised in Red Kettles in 2020 — to help keep Americans in their homes this holiday season and beyond.
Every donation helps hope march on for those in need, and all gifts stay within the community in which they are given. Visit SalvationArmyUSA.org to donate or learn more.
