The Salvation Army: A Case Study

Nonprofit companies include American Red Cross, The Salvation Army, and the Food Bank, just to name a few. An administrative assistant might organize functions such as planning a fund raiser or collecting donations on top of office tasks such as answering phone calls, planning meetings, recruiting, and training new workers or volunteers, and computer work. For example, an administrative assistant at the Food Bank may work the front desk answering phones and inputting volunteer hours on the computer while organizing the canned food drive for the upcoming holidays.

In conclusion to this paper, Salvation Army is a strong standing company that focuses on giving to those in need.

In today’s domestic, domestic abuse is frequently ignored by the public or just not reported at all. The NCADV actually reports that “On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.” Because of this Care Haven has developed an ad that incorporates “the dress” which was a social media craze about that was a visual “illusion” pertaining to a dress that was either “black and blue” or “white and gold”. The Care Haven website uses rhetorical devices such as logos, pathos, ethos, imagery and Kairos/syntax to help draw attention to towards the importance of the realization of how common domestic abuse is.

The social service I wanted to learn more about was Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota. In 2012, Children’s Home Society and Lutheran Social Services combined forces in their adoption services to provide quality programs to families. They are an organization that provides social services for adoption, pregnancy, post adoption, global support and educational services in Minnesota. Their mission is to provide care and match children to homes. I had no idea there were so many things to consider when you are deciding whether to place a child in adoption, foster care programs and to adopt a child either locally or internationally. For pregnant mothers, they provide resources to help should they choose parenting or adoption. For potential fathers, they provide the resources for them to protect against their child getting adopted until a DNA test, allowing them an opportunity before this decision is made. They work with families that wish to adopt and those that wish to

The Salvation Army is a non-governmental organization that was made solely for the idea to help people. They support people with such activities as; Adult rehabilitation, where people in serious need of help go to them for food, therapy, leisure activities and a clean and healthy living environment.

Prison ministries provide prisoners and those on parole/probation with guidance and assistance. Elderly services offer assistance to seniors and pensioners by offering residences for older adults and activities such as day care, educational classes and hot lunch programs.

Insightful advertisements to show the real epidemic of abuse challenges American society and it’s view on the subject. The Dress Domestic Violence PSA is just one out of thousands of advertisements created for the purpose of bringing abuse to into the public’s eye. At the end of February, the South African branch of the Salvation Army released the advertisement where it exploded all over the internet; in a 24-hour period earning 7.6 million tweets (“The Dress Domestic Violence PSA”). While integrating a popular phenomenon known as the black and blue or white and gold dress that appeared in 2016, the advertisement calls the public out on the fact that domestic violence stays hushed under the table. The PSA features a woman covered with bruises wearing “the dress.” In the photograph, the woman has on the white and gold dress that many people swore they saw whenever looking at a photo of a blue and black dress. The comparison comes from the bruises on her knees, thigh, and face; representing the blue and black dress others saw. In these terms though, as many argued they did not see the blue and black dress, numerous people claim never too see black and blue bruises among domestic violence

When Christmas comes around, it’s time for all the different types of charities to come out. The Salvation Army is one of them; they are out everywhere looking for people to give money. When they are ringing the bell, people do not ask what does this support. They are instantly digging in their pockets, wallets, and purses to find loose change. When they find coins or dollar bills, they just put them in the red bucket and keep on walking. Why do people do this? People should research charities before giving because the money may not be spent on what the charity says, may not reach the people in need, or could just go to waste.

“Put your clothes to work” is a project where I collected bags of old clothes and donated them to the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army was started by William Booth and his wife. They let in alcoholics, morphine addicts, and other "undesirables" unwelcome in polite Christian society. Then, the Booths started their own Christian church. They believed in not drinking, smoking, or taking drugs of any kind. The soldiers wear a uniform tailored to the state of they work. As the Salvation grew, they gained some unwanted attention by the Skelton Army. They threw bones, rats, and tar to physically assault the members of the Army. Much of this hate was filled by the pub owners because of the Army’s no alcohol mentality. So, the reason I chose this

This course covered many important topics helpful in understanding learning organizations. This paper will incorporate real-life situations from my organization, The American Red Cross. It will focus on three areas I found to be most helpful and relevant to my experience which is the understanding of systems thinking, growth, and the need to practice reflection.

The Salvation Army is an international movement, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church. It is dedicated to the propagation of the Christian faith and to the furnishing of various forms of assistance to persons in need of spiritual solace and material aid. The Salvation Army was founded in 1865 in London by the English Methodist minister William Booth. It was originally founded as the Christian Mission, with the aim of carrying on evangelical and social-welfare work among the inhabitants of the slum areas of London. The Salvation Army was originally called the Christian Revival Association. It was renamed the East London Christian Mission in 1870 and from 1878 has been known as the Salvation Army (The

“Why is it So Hard to See Black and Blue”?  According to the Salvation Army and Care Haven, it is “Hard to See Black and Blue” on a White upper-class woman because viewers focus on her gold and white dress, rather than on the bruises that cover her body.  The sponsors of the public service announcement put a gold and white dress on a battered woman to incorporate a popular phenomenon with something serious: domestic violence. Within the last decade, there has been an increase in reported incidents of domestic violence among upper-class renowned Americans males.   Martha Ross, a reporter, interviewed a few of these men.  All of them blamed their actions on “accidents” or the woman ("Charlie Sheen?").  Despite these men’s excuses, they still gain support; instead of taking the abuser’s side people need to protect women.  One group that understands the need to protect women from these types of men is the Salvation Army; they have a division called CareHaven that specializes in sheltering women and their children who have experienced domestic abuse (Salvation Army’s CareHaven).  In the advertisement on the previous page, CareHaven appeals to viewers’ sense of logic and emotion by using a woman, text, and an illusion to persuade people to report and, thus, stop abuse against women.
