Salvation Army Saskatoon Community Centre's photostream

Started in 1925, The Saskatoon Salvation Army Community Centre is a shelter, food provider, and a safe space to drop-in for adults in the downtown core of Saskatoon.

It is a continuation of the services that the Salvation Army started in Saskatoon in 1905. In 1926 the Salvation Army opened what was then known as the "Relief Office" at 335 Avenue C South. By 1932 it was known as the The Salvation Army Men's Hostel and Industrial Store where by 1943, had room for 40 men. In 1962 the Centre had moved next door to it's current location at 339 Avenue C South. Over the next several decades a chapel, half-way house, rehab unit, and more property was added until the Centre took the form it is today.
