Care for Creation

The Salvation Army is committed to helping change attitudes, resulting in a more responsible use of our planet.

As a Mission Service we seek to provide practical care and advocacy for people affected by damage to the environment. People will not experience fullness of life unless God’s creation is protected and cared for.
