 
Community computer
labs at Grants Town, Mackey Street and in Freeport
provide a variety of
computer based training and tutorials for children, youths and
adults. Plans are in place to upgrade these labs to help address
the worrying literacy levels of some of our nation's children and
youth.
Additionally,
all of
the Army’s corps provide a multitude of character
building opportunities including music, recreation, sports as well as
moral, spiritual and educational programs.
During times of disaster The
Salvation Army works closely with NEMA, the Department of Social
Services and other churches, agencies and NGOs to provide relief
supplies and rehabilitation materials to those affected. The Army
provides an abundance of counsel and hope, too. The Army in
The Bahamas also networks with its Caribbean and international offices
to source and supply the goods, materials and humanpower needed in the
event major hurricanes and other catastrophes occur.

“While women weep,
as they do now,
I'll fight;
while children go hungry, as they do now I'll fight;
while men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now,
I'll fight;
while there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon
the streets,
while there remains one dark soul without the light of God,
I'll fight,
I'll fight
to the very end!”
William Booth,
Founder of The Salvation
Army, in his final public address in 1912.

"Service is our watchword, and there
is no reward
equal to that of
doing the most good
to the most people
in the most need."
Evangeline
Booth,
daughter
of The Army's founder,
William Booth. |
