Under the Tree Campaign 2025-2026
The aim of the Under the Tree fundraiser is to bring awareness every year to three main areas in which the International Development Department works - children's homes, schools and agriculture projects.
Ministry Units can work together as a congregation, a women's ministry group, a youth group, etc. Individuals can then purchase specific items that will help to: Fill a Dorm, Fill a School and Build a Farm.
Fill a Dorm
The Fill a Dorm fundraiser will support children living in The Salvation Army homes, where many young people lack access to the essentials of daily life—such as proper nutrition, education, and caring social and spiritual guidance.
This campaign aims to provide children with safe and supportive spaces where they can learn, grow, and flourish. With your help, they will have access to education, nourishing food, and the resources they need to build a brighter future.
Fill a School
The Salvation Army believes in the power of education to transform lives and break the cycle of poverty. Yet, many children around the world—especially girls—are still denied the opportunity to attend school.
The Fill a School fundraiser will help provide children and youth with the tools and resources they need to thrive in the classroom. With your support, students will receive essentials such as school fees, uniforms, supplies, textbooks, and more.
Together, we can open the door to education and give children the chance to build brighter futures.
Build a Farm
The Build a Farm fundraiser will support farming and sustainable agriculture projects. Around the world, the vast majority of people living in poverty—approximately 75 percent—reside in rural areas and rely on agriculture for their livelihoods.
With your support, The Salvation Army can help address food insecurity by empowering farmers to plant and harvest enough food for their families, while also enabling them to invest in future crops, their children’s education, health, and overall family well-being.
