The Salvation Army Vail Valley has received food donations from local businesses and has a team of volunteers unloading trucks, sanitizing, sorting, storing and delivering, among other ways to help.<\/strong>

The local Salvation Army is located in Avon, but its \u201csoldiers\u201d are busy across the valley.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are truly an army of soldiers that are not afraid right now,\u201d volunteer board chair Anne Barnett said. \u201cWe\u2019re getting out there and getting it done.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the help of generous donors, local businesses and volunteers, the Salvation Army is providing food, toiletries and other essentials for people in need. With more and more people and families needing help getting food during the coronavirus pandemic, the Salvation Army\u2019s important mission is needed now more than ever.<\/p>\n

While the Salvation Army happily accepts donations of food and other items, the best way for people to help out is to donate money. The nonprofit is able to do more with dollars and buys food for cheaper prices, and all of the food dropped off requires volunteers to sanitize items, sort and store.<\/p>\n
