The Salvation Army of Rome is encouraging continued community support this spring as the organization works year-round to provide services to residents in both Floyd and Chattooga counties.

Major Hank Harwell, Corps Officer, says while the nonprofit receives strong support during the holiday season, donations are needed throughout the year to sustain ongoing programs and assistance efforts.

Those wishing to contribute can donate online at www.salvationarmyrome.org, or mail or deliver donations to the Salvation Army office located at 317 East 1st Avenue in Rome.

In addition to monetary donations, the organization is also seeking gently used items for the Salvation Army Rome Family Store. Volunteers are also needed to help support operations and outreach efforts.

The Salvation Army of Rome serves individuals and families across Floyd and Chattooga counties, providing vital assistance to those in need.

Local donors and volunteers will be recognized during National Salvation Army Week, set for May 11–17, with an Appreciation Luncheon scheduled for May 12 at the Rome Civic Center.

For more information, call 706-291-4745.
