Helping Homeless Families Get Back in Control of Their Lives

Sep 20, 2023 | by Carl M. Dameron

“The Resource Fair brings together many of our partners who offer services like ours as well as services we are not able to provide and gives people who need help a convenient way to get the help they need,” said Major Braga.

(San Bernardino, Calif.)  The Salvation Army San Bernardino Corps’ “Fight for Good” features a Community Resource Fair at Belong Church, 324 W. 4oth Street in San Bernardino on Thursday September 21st, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. 

Local community service organizations will be on hand offering a wide variety of services to provide support for San Bernardino families in need of help.

“The Resource Fair brings together many of our partners who offer services like ours as well as services we are not able to provide and gives people who need help a convenient way to get the help they need,” said San Bernardino Corps chief executive Major Braga.

The Resource Fair is a special added attraction that highlights the array of service providers that are available to provide help above and beyond what The Salvation Army itself can provide. The greater San Bernardino area is fortunate to have such a robust network.

By itself, the Salvation Army provides emergency services including daily meals, food baskets; lodging for homeless or displaced families; after-school programs for youth, summer camping programs, clothing, showers, and furniture; assistance with rent or mortgage and transportation; and rehabilitation for homeless families when funds are available.

Donations can be made online at SBCSVA.org or by calling 1-(800)-SAL-ARMY, specifying that you want your donation applied to San Bernardino Corps in California.

For more information call (909) 792-6868.
