NEOCAA serves as The Salvation Army center for Delaware and Cherokee counties.

Through the organization, NEOCAA is able to provide help with emergency assistance for those whose needs can’t be met by the other services NEOCAA offers. This assistance includes grocery vouchers, providing hotel lodging for those who have experienced a house fire or other emergency.

All services of The Salvation Army are provided by monetary donations. In addition to accepting direct donations at NEOCAA, volunteers also ring bells at Walmart to raise funds during the winter.

Clothing donations are not accepted at the NEOCAA center and there is no thrift store available.

To make a donation or to inquire about services provided by The Salvation Army, call (918) 253-4683, ext. 128 and ask for Amy Curry.

History of The Salvation Army

Established in London in 1865, The Salvation Army has been supporting those in need without discrimination for more than 135 years in the United States.

Each year, More than 23 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army through a range of social services: food for the hungry, relief for disaster survivors, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter to the homeless, and opportunities for underprivileged children.

Eighty-two cents of every dollar donated to The Salvation Army are used to support those services in 5,000 communities nationwide.

The Salvation Army tracks the level of need across the country with the Human Needs Index (HumanNeedsIndex.org).
