All services offered in English and Spanish

Food Pantry (Tuesdays) – Families and individuals may come once a month for food bags (dry and canned goods) and frozen meat from Harry Chapin Food Bank and community donations. We ask each household to complete an annual intake documenting basic household information and verifying their income eligibility. Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m., 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m.

Diapers and Hygiene Items – We make small packs of diapers, wipes and hygiene items available as donations permit.

Emergency Financial Assistance – To qualify for help with past due rent and past due utilities, individuals must show proof of a loss of income or verifiable crisis. The client then takes part in a full assessment and plan, referrals and case management.  We use private donations and administer funds from the Care to Share FPL assistance program for emergency assistance and partner with other local agencies to meet the client’s needs.

Baby Basics – We partner with Baby Basics of Collier County for distribution of diapers to families that have at least one adult working in the household and do not receive government assistance such as Food Stamps or Cash Assistance (Medicaid and WIC are ok).  This is available for children 3 and under. Participating families come each month for a short educational lesson and receive a large box of diapers.

Christmas Assistance 

Prayer and Spiritual Care – As a church, The Salvation Army offers prayer and spiritual counsel to all clients, volunteers, donors or members of the community at large who request it. All services in our offices are offered to anyone who qualifies, regardless of their religious belief.

If you need help: Please call us at (239) 948-5200
