Serving the community

The Salvation Army has been a trusted presence in Kitchener‑Waterloo for 140 years. We are a community where faith inspires action and people come first.

Through our church ministries and Family Care Centre, we continue to support, encourage, and uplift our neighbours every day.

Family Care Centre

We are a place of support, care, and connection for individuals and families in our community. We offer emergency assistance such as food, clothing, referrals, and connections to other social service providers, along with emotional and spiritual care for those facing challenging times.

Through early learning programs for children and supportive programs for adults and women, we seek to build community and walk alongside our neighbours at every stage of life. Rooted in our faith, we serve as an expression of God’s love, striving to be the hands and feet of Jesus as we journey together.

Office hours: Monday – Friday 9:00am – 3:30pm. Closed daily from 12:00pm – 1:00 pm and Thursdays 12 – 1:30 pm.
