Somerville Emergency Management was pleased to recognize the Salvation Army at the May 14 City Council meeting – which happened to also be during National Salvation Army Week! – for their commitment and generosity in support of the Somerville community. The Salvation Army has been a valuable partner by providing vital assistance for residents displaced by home fires, as well as delivering food to City warming locations during the winter season, and more.

Thank you to Councilor Ben Ewen-Campen for sponsoring a citation and to all the Councilors for their support.
