Contributions made will have a profound impact on local community members this holiday season

 JOHNSON CITY – This Giving Tuesday, Dec. 3, The Salvation Army of the Tri-Cities is calling on the community to join a global movement of generosity. Contributions made this Giving Tuesday will help provide vital resources, including shelter, food, emergency rent and utility assistance, and Christmas support for local families facing difficult circumstances.

Giving Tuesday, celebrated annually after Thanksgiving, offers an opportunity for individuals and organizations to come together and make a positive difference during the holiday season. The Salvation Army depends on the generosity of local donors to help individuals and families who are struggling, providing a hand up to those in need.

“Giving Tuesday is a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together as a community,” said Major Brooks Gilliam, Corps Officer for Bristol. “Your donation, no matter the amount, enables us to offer critical assistance to our neighbors in their time of need. Together, we can make the holiday season brighter for everyone.”
