Will the Salvation Army Help Me Pay Rent?
Is it true that the Salvation Army will pay your rent if you are unable to (only once) ?
A person at work told me that if you are unable to pay your rent then the Salvation Army will help you by paying it but only once? I don’t know if this is true or not. I know the Salvation Army accepts donations and sells it at their thrift stores, they’re just like Goodwill Stores. I’ve looked at the Salvation Army website and no where does it say that they will cover a month’s rent if you are unable to. Does anyone know if this is true?

Who Shop At the Salvation Army Thrift Store?
Is the Salvation Army more of a thrift store like goodwill or a charity?
I’ve heard of people (who aren’t exactly poor) who decide they like thrift stores so much that they decide to shop there regularly instead of going to real stores such as Walmart or Target or even department stores. They say that they find good things at thrift stores and they say that the Salvation Army stores are better than an average store. So, I am wonder could someone who isn’t needy shop at a goodwill or Salvation Army store?
