How we help partner with adults

Food Pantry

Families and individuals can come to us once a month to receive groceries including fresh produce, canned goods, meat, and dairy (as available).

Rent and Utility Assistance

Families facing shut off notices from their utility company can request assistance.  If the amount is more than we are able to cover, collaboration with other local agencies helps avoid a shut down.  

Animal Food Assistance

Many people find companionship in a dog or a cat yet struggle to care for and feed them.  We can supply dog or cat food as part of our regular food pantry.

Energy Assistance Program

Residents of Floyd County may sign up for the Energy Assistance Program which is state-funded to help families with their utility costs during the coldest and the hottest months of the year.  More information about the Energy Assistance Program can be found here.  This program only runs from Nov 1 -May 15.

Clothing Assistance

Clothing for families in a financial crisis can be provided for from our Thrift stores.  Special emphasis is placed on this need during back to school time and over 300 children received clothes for school this year.

Disaster Services

The Salvation Army serves victims and first responders that are involved in disaster situations.  Specific help is based on the nature of the disaster but might include financial assistance, food provision (served from our mobile food unit), emergency shelter, and on-going case management.

Christmas Assistance

Families may be provided clothing, toys, and food during the holiday season.  

Loving and Caring

This senior group meets once a month, on the 4th Monday at 12 PM.  We offer a lunch as well as community, fun, and service projects.  This program is open for everyone.

If you would like more information or need assistance, please call us at 812-944-1018 between 9 AM and 4 PM or email Sarah_drury@usc.salvationarmy.org.
