On Thursday morning we hosted the "Honoured Friends" of The Salvation Army at our Seacombe Gardens centre.
Honoured Friends are those people that have already indicated that they will be leaving a bequest to The Salvation Army in their wills. Some already partner with The Salvation Army as monthly donors also.
Much of the money raised by our Honoured Friends funds critical services, particularly through assisting with capital projects. Through these means, monies otherwise spent on physical things can be diverted to assistance for those we serve. This year alone, a significant bequest has assisted our Corps to clear around 1/3 of our building debt, releasing more money for our mission in the Marion and Holdfast Bay communities.
