Beware when you are completing your “donation list”. I added items that didn’t appear on the completed item list. Basically, they would only take what appeared on the list. I wasn’t going to donate half of my items, so I will call someone else. I can’t believe a company operating on donations would refuse items. It is nice things that someone will appreciate somewhere else.

This place was a blessing to my family. They offered us housing. They made sure we had beds. We are truly grateful for the staff there. Every situation is what you make out of it. We now have our own place thanks to the staff.

They were handing out 30. Day suspension for leaving a towel on the edge of the bed they also thought boiled cold cuts were a hot meal

Myself, along with CCWC (Corporate Council Women of Color) were given the opportunity to volunteer at this Womens Shelter. It is a home and we felt it when we walked in. The cook, I cant remember her name was as sweet as can be. She cooks with love and these women are blessed to have someone like her. Dominic was our tour guy. He was funny, pleasant, and about his business! Thank you all for this opportunity to give back. We left feeling great, knowing that a clean and safe space is provided for these women who are going through tough situations, but they WILL get better.

It saddens me to say, but I have donated a ton of household goods, as well as money to them over the years... I will NEVER again send them so much as a grain of salt... They receive funding for being a homeless shelter, yet if it freezes, and the homeless need a place to stay, they wont allow them to even come in out of the cold, they just turn them around so they can freeze (unless they have the $5 or $6 they charge for a bed). I have personally seen them turn 3 people away when it was below freezing because they didnt have the money... When I saw this I gave the first man $10 to get a bed, unfortunately he was turned around again, and it was clear from the conversation that it was because of his race... I was so ashamed for ever giving them anything... I am personally going to talk to the commission about revoking their funding. They are heartless crooks and what they are doing is a complete violation of their non profit status. I am also going to try everything in my power to have their non profit status challenged. These people are despicable, and they are ruining the Salvation Army name and they should be shut down... They dont even deserve second hand toilet paper.

Great service. Picked up donations as promised. Called 30 minutes prior to arrival.

I constantly donate clothing items and money for good causes. Ill never give to the Salvation Army again. They took money from donations and used it to feed police and workers while they removed Louisiana historic monuments. Thats not an emergency, or a disaster, and its not what I donated for. Never again. Theres other places to donate. May have to see if youve violated your non-profit status as well.

Something needs to be done with that lady, Mrs. Francois. Shes arrogant, rude, verbally abusive & condescending. Talks to you like youre stupid & tells you that if you look at her confused, then you have a mental problem & cant stay there. They have a bed bug issue.Also, the cafeteria staff need lessons on how to cook rice. It makes NO damn sense that rice has to be hard every dinner. Seems like they throw uncooked rice in cooked red beans. Retarded!

I have had an bad experience there also, uptown, New Orleans, after a few months later. The ball dropped on them and there was an investigation from with the corporate and state about the peoples stay. some people were fired for false documents written and ect and the majors were under investigation.

This place take advantage of the homeless & drug addict. They offer them 3 hots & a cot. In exchange for working 40hr a week for free, they have no real professional help for long term recovery.👎

Good place to start from.

There are great people and there helped me and my children so much i love this Place😍

Your city of New Orleans is very exciting and I see theres more to see.bless u for allowing me stay when I hadnt had a place to stay.The food,people are wonderful.mary d kinney 1236 elm st meadville pa 16335

This is one of the worst Salvation Armies in the USA. Im a Veteran and needed services and all they do is mislead you. Chaplin Hall lied to me, and they coordinate with Volunteers of America and they Black Ball Veterans for doing an housing inquiry. It a lot of favoritism going on these days, and the Chaplin is not in charge, the women are. They did not give me a housing letter, and they make a hostile environment for you If you are more accomplished than they are. They did not even write a housing letter. Its barely ran at all.

This place is a business. They care nothing about you being in a dire situation or not. Neither does race matter. They dont care who you are, you are just another number to them, and all the see is dollar signs. They wanna see you back out on the streets, and they treat everyone like drug addicts.

The prices are great and I decoration my whole house from things that brought from the salvation army

I went to this place to buy all the furniture for my apartment and I started with a matress set I made a 25 minutes line, in order to pay for that set, but the manager, her assistance and all the gang of racis people (African American) did not let me pay for it just because I am not African American and an African American lady want it and they stop my payment to let that lady to pay for that mattress without making the line. It happened on September 29th 2016 at 1:15pm. I am so sorry for this people, neither me or any of my family is going to buy something from this store, I support Veterans but not the Racist people.

They helped me out when i needed a place to stay while on vacation when they really could of said no.Thear a blessing and thankyou for whom you repersent and are in an hour of need.God bless you all.Hope to see you all sometime in the near future.Sincerly Mary Kinney

Saddened my soul to call it the Salvation Army! These people took this name and tarnished it!

One star is the lowest it can go would be lower they check your bag wich is understandable but they pour it out and ask why have do i have things like batteries in my bag maybe its because. Im homeless not on drugs though suppose to be christians and im also a veteran being treated like a criminal they are suppose to repair lives here not have a man almost dieing the heck with this and sleeping in the streets

Only one family one fight do not give up shout out to all the Bell ringers keep up the good work

Salvation Army is a business, racist against Caucasian people. They dont care if you are a woman. If you dont have the money, they will not waste their time. They dont help people.

Rude beyond belief.The staff treat the homeless like prison inmates. Constantly talking,barking,at everyone.The full breakfast advertised on their website is corn flakes and powdered milk.Today was a REAL FULL BREAKFAST.SALTINE CRACKERS AND HARD BOILED EGGS.this place is a complete SCAM & NIGHTMARE!

They always treat me with respect, because I treat them with respect.

Submitted on 12-25-17 worst case of bug beds Ive ever seen. Staff refused to record it when I said something. This is a place made for the street vagrants.

The staff is rude and disrespectful. They have no love for God or anyone. God will deal with them.

Very good people
