Partner Description
The Salvation Army's mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination. The Salvation Army's Adult Rehabilitation Centers (ARCs) provide residential recovery programs for individuals seeking to deal with substance abuse and other addictions. They seek to help participants regain self-worth, learn how to build an orderly and disciplined life and become contributing members of society. Each program participant is provided with a clean and healthy living environment, nutritious food, group and individual counseling, spiritual direction, work therapy assignments, and recreational activities.
Need
Provide a powerful message of hope, dignity, and divine love to individuals taking their first courageous steps toward recovery! Entering a rehabilitation center can feel incredibly lonely, isolating, and overwhelming. By writing personalized cards of encouragement, you can remind incoming residents that they are not alone, that they are profoundly valued, and that they are deeply loved by God.
More Details
This is a beautiful, highly flexible opportunity that individuals, families, or small groups can complete entirely from home. You can choose to purchase pre-made cards or tap into your creativity to handcraft your own notes of upliftment and comfort.
Estimated Cost: Approx. $5 – $15 (Depending on whether you purchase a pack of cards or use crafting supplies you already have at home).
Guidelines: Since these cards will be distributed to a diverse intake of new residents, all messages must utilize gender-neutral language and omit any personal identifying information.
