About Us

The Salvation Army is an international Christian movement, united by faith and sharing hope where it’s needed most. Across the Orana Region our work touches every demographic and age group. We’re involved in both local and national issues while also bringing hope to people who may be experiencing hardship or injustice.

Since our foundations in nineteenth century London, we express our faith in charitable work to provide both the spiritual and the social support. We believe that with one hand we reach out to God and with the other we reach out to the world.

As both a church and charity, we can preach and speak about justice, compassion, and other issues that support the welfare of others and see them as a whole person – body, mind and spirit.
