The Salvation Army National Capital Area Command

On April 22, 2026, the Alexandria community will come together for Alexandria’s BIG Day of Giving to support local nonprofits making a difference every day.

At our The Salvation Army Alexandria Citadel Corps, we help neighbors meet their basic needs and find hope for the future. From emergency assistance for families in crisis to youth music programs and spiritual support, we are here year-round to serve our community. ACT for Alexandria

❤️ Sometimes, it’s the little signs that remind us why we serve.

At our Prince William Service Center’s monthly food distribution, volunteers and staff knew it would be a special day from the very start, when the first potato unpacked was shaped like a heart. A simple, joyful reminder of the love that fuels this work every day.

21 incredible women from our Women’s Auxiliary came together to create Easter baskets for the children at our Turning Point Center for Women and Children.

We are so grateful for the auxiliary's continued support and generosity, these baskets are more than just gifts; they help create cherished memories and meaningful traditions for the families we serve. 💛🐣✨

Spring in Washington, D.C. means cherry blossom season! 🌸 Visitors from around the world come to see the blooms during the National Cherry Blossom Festival.

But our region has so much more to offer!

📣 DC region locals: What are the must-see spots for visitors? Tag your favorite place and tell us why they shouldn’t miss it! 👇

Every Friday at 1:00 PM, the doors at our Montgomery County Corps open for a weekly Food Distribution.

Today our freezers are fully stocked and ready for this afternoon — a powerful reminder of what’s possible because of the incredible support of our community. In a couple of hours all of this will be distributed to neighbors in need.

When you support The Salvation Army you ensure that our neighbors are fed, nourished, and reminded that they are not alone. 🥫
