Financial Assistance

 

For many, making ends meet is a daily challenge, forcing people to choose between things like paying their utility bills, getting needed medications, and putting food on the table. We understand the stress these situations put on families and are here to help through these vital homelessness prevention programs.

 

 

Food Pantries

At The Salvation Army, we know that one of the first results to occur in times of crisis is food insecurity, prompting many to look for food assistance programs. Many families don’t know where their next meal will come from. Whether the cause is a natural disaster, financial strain, or a health issue, many families in need struggle to find nutritional food.


A typical visit to one of our food pantries will provide a family in need, in Sarasota County, with a three-to-five-day supply of nutritionally balanced groceries, completely free of charge.
