The Salvation Army has operated a "curbside" recycling program for more than 100 years.

It began in the slums of 19th Century London, and continues to this day in all corners of the globe.  In the United States, 118 Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Centers are supported exclusively by the collection and sale of society's surplus but useable household goods.

In the early days, men with push carts were sent out to collect paper and other salvage.  Horses and wagons eventually supplanted the push carts, and in turn were supplanted by the familiar Salvation Army trucks.

Today, a fleet of modern "Red Shield" trucks and stationary "Certified Collection Centers" collect the donations of a generous public, which fund the rehabilitation of thousands of men and women struggling with addictions to drugs and alcohol.

That's where you can help!
