Volunteer: The Salvation Army Landscaping & Beautification

Help enhance the appearance of The Salvation Army Evansville by assisting with the beautification of our campus grounds!

Volunteers will work together to clean and refresh the front planter and the landscaping areas surrounding our electronic sign along Fulton Avenue.
