grow our Services & Programs with your kindness!
Help us as a volunteer or in a leadership & planning role: We envision a community where every individual's capacity for successful living is realized; where every individual feels valued, inspired, a vital part of this community with something uniquely theirs to share. We are on a quest for creative, out-of-the-box thinkers to grow this vision and serve alongside us.
Take a step.

Encourage Others to Help. Helping our neighbors in need has always been a community effort, and that’s never been truer than now. So, if you are able to donate money or supplies and help our neighbors, please do so. And ask your friends and family to do the same. They may be looking for how to help and will appreciate hearing from you. - Donate Social Media Posts. We support the causes we know and understand so help us share how The Salvation Army is helping. Consider posting about how you have donated and/or volunteered, or share a post from The Salvation Army of Fond du Lac Facebook. Tag us in your posts – we’d love to see!

- Donate Online or by Mail. The quickest and safest way to help those in need is to donate monetarily online at www.safdl.org or mail a check to The Salvation Army, 237 N Macy St., Fond du Lac, WI 54935.
