The Home Front is an ongoing series where we highlight the mission and ministry taking place around our territory. We will visit each Canadian province and territory, as well as Bermuda, and celebrate the innovation and impact the Army is having in corps, social services and youth ministry.

Adam Walker has lived a life of hardship, trauma and addiction. His story is the type that doesn’t always have a happy ending. However, Adam was determined to be one of the lucky ones when he entered the doors of The Salvation Army’s Addiction and Residential Centre (ARC) in Edmonton and began his first step to healing.

With a national fundraising goal of $22 million, contributions to the kettle campaign allow The Salvation Army to provide practical assistance for all who need it, not only at Christmas but throughout the year.
