The Salvation Army: Doing the Most Good

Everyone is familiar with the 150 year old charitable organization - The Salvation Army. But do you know about this respected group’s Christian history and articles of faith? Christine Schuster, Senior Financial Accountant for the Eastern Territory, joins us to talk about: William Booth (founder of the Salvation Army) and what motivated him to serve the less fortunate, why the Salvation Army considers itself to be a church, how many members and nations they assist, what services they provide, how their thrift stores work and where the money goes, and how Shelby software has been able to help them reach their ministry goals over the years. And make sure to watch the end of the video for Christine’s emotional first-hand account of the disaster relief that The Salvation Army was able to provide during 9/11. This is the first time that Christine has spoken about the events in NYC since they happened, and you will not want to miss her heartfelt story.
