As an organization, The Salvation Army has been recycling for well over 100 years. We\u2019re proud to have served in the community of West Kelowna and Kelowna for 95 years. In fact we have a thrift store here in the Central Okanagan for over 50 years. \u00a0\u00a0We believe we have an ethical responsibility to support not only the people of our earth, but the earth itself. The Salvation Army as an organization has accepted responsibility for this world we live in by taking practical steps to conserve it – such as keeping reusable items out of local landfills.<\/p>\n
The donations and the monies raised through thrift store operations, help provide resources for our services and programs such as, local after-school and sports programs.<\/p>\n
