The Salvation Army is active in 126 countries, integrated with local communities – building deep relationships. These carefully nurtured ties allow The Salvation Army to see below the surface to understand the root of many issues. At The Salvation Army World Service Office (SAWSO), we leverage this more profound understanding to help identify local needs. We support the work accomplished to address those needs. And long after the work is done, we continue to encourage positive change.

 

Internationally, The Salvation Army has: 

More than 50,000 indigenous employees working in 126 countries

8,580 corps and community centers

2,769 schools with more than 500,000 students

319 hospitals and clinics

 

In 2014, SAWSO partnered with The Salvation Army in local communities in 61 countries, believing that these communities had a capacity for growth and sustainable change.

Sustainability is a result of SAWSO's emphasis on holistic transformation – serving people spiritually, physically, socially, and emotionally.
