The mission of The Salvation Army World Service Office (SAWSO) is:
“To support and strengthen The Salvation Army's efforts
to work hand in hand with communities to improve the health, economic and
spiritual conditions of the poor throughout the world.”
Our vision is to create a world where people live in safe and sustainable
communities in which differences are respected, basic needs are met, and
all enjoy opportunities to learn, work and worship in freedom.
The Salvation Army is active in many third world countries providing support
for programs such as children’s hospitals and orphanages, HIV/Aids
action centers, construction and operation of churches for spiritual programs
and Salvation Army Training Colleges.
