This place is not only an eyesore for the community but drives down the property values of the surrounding neighborhood. Not to mention the fact that the surrounding property owners are constantly dealing with the trash, theft, and the disrespectful clients...all while mgmt. does absolutely nothing to help resolve issues!! People just laying all over the...

I believe the salvation army located on the town square in marion illinois is doing some things that are not in good standards with the business. The manager there is buying things for herself, instead of putting out on the sales floor, and she is also letting her friend that owns an antique shop in on things before putting them out on the sales floor. They...

I have a medical condition that prevents me from wearing a mask over my face, i explained this to the lady who asked me to wear one and she asked me to leave the store. This is NOT an ordinance in my county. Please advice if a medical condition will be ignored and violated by the Salvation Army on Beach Blvd in Huntington Beach, Ca

I resided in one of the Salvation Army/McCormick Baron Apartments in St Louis, Mo. The Apartment Manager strives to retaliate each and every time I communicate any issues with her or property manager. Recently, I had my heat turned off, and was told that if I continue complaining I will be evicted. I have contacted the attorney regarding the intentional...

The Salvation Army USA Disaster fire recovery victim / social worker

Hello my house burned down 10 days ago and I have been out displaced for 8 days due to not having money for a place to stay. I don't have family, I really have a life that was quiet and peaceful and happen to be with roommates as well to help with living expenses. I was referred to you from Red Cross and they said you can help provide assistance for a place to stay. I haven't seen anything that is a little hopeful yet. I have called numerous times, been transferred several times, told to go call this place, talk to that person, come down. I have done everything, I even started a fund raiser for myself that didn't help me yet. Everyday is a day where waking up is a chore, getting up to go where, do what, I have no place to even put my head to rest. I finally have been in contact with Yolanda from social worker sections for disaster recovery service, and she truly made me feel really bad for not doing what she thinks would've helped since the fire. I however am appalled, I don't understand the reasons to not deserve having a place because I am not working at the time, and my husband is a seasonal worker and nothing but rain here. I have no family to help me, I don't know really many people to ask the kind of help I need. Honestly, I am going on without a shower now over a week, I can't reset my mind, can't restart my life again without a place to start it at. I have lost a lot, nearly everything, memories, collectables, tools, hobbies, vital documents, ability to work from home, and I just needed to know someone was out there who cared about this situation. I am scared with the covid virus, I can't go to a drive up for I don't have a vehicle. So to be told no, and I am not helping myself was a devestating blow. I don't understand how it works when judging me comes first, and formost from a person who didn't have any empathy for my situation and would've done things different. So I don't know now, without a hope, a start, honestly it's more humane to euthanize us because it's a true nightmare to have been ignored by the world, to swept on by. I guess I'm hoping to find someone who has any way of getting my situation dealt without judging me. I have been trying all 10 days! And I couldn't quit if I wanted to, I still have to be out in this cold and scary pandemic.
Sincerely,

Jami Berg

I was on bed rest for three days, from. 3/5-3/7/2020 with pnuemonia. On 3/4 I went to Med North to see my Dr, Dr. Gibble, and she treated me for Pnuemonia. She provided me with a Note that the Salvation Army requested for me to be placed on bedrest until 24hrs after my fever of 101° broke. I missed work onf Friday 3/5/20. My fever finally broke on Monday...

The Salvation Army USA unsubscribe

I have just gotten off the phone asking to been unsubscribed. This was my FOURTH TIME I have had to call and request to be removed.The last charge on my account was March 4 th. this very morning. It is easy to see that your raing is one star. I am disappointed with the Salvation Army. I have made many donations over the years. I have donated clothes, furniture and appliances for years. I always supported the Army, and have provided proof supporting the Army over Goodwill, which is more profit oriented and not supportive of their employees ( I used to work for Goodwill ).

The Salvation Army USA re majors. the interns

One time I was supervising in the gym during youth program so u see we were in the him. The children were playing ball. When a boy hits my grandson in the face with a basket ball. Wich my grandson was kind of upset mad so as a reaction he punched the other child. My grandson indeed get grounded for his actions. M
And then there was Monday night and the boys were playing tackle football when my grandson had both his hands with a defense position. When the other boy that he was playing with took his fingers and twisted my grandsons fingers. I felt there was nothing done about it.

Then this evening we were at youth program again. Well it was the end of it and we were getting ready to go home so as weather up the kids . So has we r leaving the gym I witnessed a boy and he had his brother buy his arm and was literally dragging him as he was laying on the gym floor. So then l as a leader asked the boy to let the. Other boy go. So then one of the majors told me that need to shut up and told me that the grandmother of the two boys told him to grab the small boy.you see when each child signs the rule sheet. But yet the rules arent being inforced. Like if a child does something know is wrong.and it is brought to the majors attention. I have been told to not worry about it and then major Laura says to me. Don't worry about it kids will be kids

You see last mother's day. I became a member of the salvation army. I have even done alot of volunteer work so when the new majors took it all away

We have never had a problem. April 26 2019 my partner of 32 years passed away. Tim and I both knew Joe shraupp threw your store as he worked there. In May I let him move in...

Normally I redonate items I purchase that don't fit me but after one shopping trip I had several things that didn't fit. I went to the store to exchange out for other items and the woman at the desk said that they normally do let customers exchange out but she needed to get her manager. The "manager" came out and like a broken record-"we don't take...

This store receives items with price tags already on them and removes them and puts a new price that is double of that tag. I go to both stores in my area. Hesperia and victorville. This is the ONLY store that does this. I have complained to the manager and she said they can do that if they want. Most employees there are very rude and disrespectful. They...

the Salvation Army in Oakland leaves mattress sprawled out throughout its parking lot. These aren't covered from the weather and the piles keep getting bigger and dirtier. I presume they do this so the local homeless can take a mattress but it just ends up in homeless people making forts out of mattresses, contributing to the garbage issue in Oakland...

We go to a ton of Salvation Army stores. I have visited from Little Rock to Memphis to New Orleans and this store has outrageously over priced every item. The ladies were plain out rude to my husband. We love shopping in every small town we pass through but I will not go back to this store. They have priced things at retail and when we asked to see a clock...

I used to get stuff from the dumpster till the store put up no trespassing signs. Because the staff at the store throws donations away without even looking at them in trash bags never opened I have never made any money from what I removed from the dumpster. I am on disability and have very little money and the community where I live is a very poor community...
