As a woman living in Iran, Zara was persecuted and prevented from working or pursuing higher education. Fleeing the troubles in her homeland, she  arrived at The Salvation Army’s Florence Booth House in 2022. " I didn’t know anything about The Salvation Army, but now that I do, I think it is very good and supportive," she says.

Recently, The Salvation Army in Corner Brook, N.L., received a large donation of moose meat, allowing them to serve more than 1,000 meals to clients at their soup kitchen. The donation was made possible by local hunters who have brought moose meat to The Salvation Army for the past 17 years. “They like what The Salvation Army does in the community,” says Major Brian Wheeler, pastor at the Army’s Corner Brook Community Church. 

Behind the Wall, owned by Andrew Russell, works closely with The Salvation Army’s housing and outreach teams to address homelessness across the city by creating stable, subsidized housing opportunities. This collaboration has created a brighter future for more than 150 previously unhoused individuals, helping them transition into safe, reliable housing while offering a fresh start to life.
