1. Feeding programmes
Hunger can be one of the frightening issues in India.
Apart from ensuring adequate nutrition for those in residential care, there are a number of feeding programmes on Salvation Army premises, or sometimes on roadside venues.
2. Disaster relief
With the support of its international organization The Salvation Army is able to quickly respond to emergencies for victims of floods, fires, earthquakes and other traumatic events.
