The Salvation Army continues to serve Chile in the wake of Saturday’s massive earthquake, but did you know we have been active in the South American nation since 1909? That’s more than 100 years!

The below is a clip from the video, “A Life Saving Army,” which features  information about the work of The Salvation Army in Chile, including educational outreach, childcare programs, skills training, and anti-drug programs. The original video also featured Salvation Army programs in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru.

To support The  Salvation Army’s ongoing relief efforts in Chile, donate online or text the word ‘CHILE’ to 52000 and confirm with ‘YES’ to make a $10 contribution.
