Giving Back to Neighbors in Need

Recently, the need for assistance has grown across our community. According to Captain Juan Gomez, Corps Officer for The Salvation Army of Texarkana, more families are seeking help than in years past, including some who previously volunteered or donated. Gomez said the food drive serves as a reminder that challenges can touch anyone and that working together makes the greatest impact.
