128th Anniversary Celebration, Ribbon Cutting, & Building Dedication Ceremony

We're celebrating our 128th birthday and you're invited!

For 128 years, The Salvation Army has been a steadfast source of hope on the Virginia Peninsula — meeting human needs in His name without discrimination.

On Thursday, May 14, 2026, we will celebrate a major milestone: our 128th Anniversary Celebration & Building Dedication – “128 Years Strong: Faithful Then. Faithful Now. Faithful Forward.”

Join us at 9am for a Ribbon Cutting and Dedication of our NEW location at 14425 Old Courthouse Way in Newport News, followed by a celebratory breakfast.

The event will feature musical selections from members of the renowned Salvation Army Brass Band and special guest speaker Sister David Ann, Executive Director, Bernardine Franciscan Sisters Foundation.

Funds raised through this celebration will directly sustain essential services: children sleeping safely, families avoiding eviction, veterans receiving support, and seniors not going hungry.

We pray you will join us for this remarkable milestone while helping support programs and services that help our friends and neighbors.
