Salvation Army in Ansonia asks public to place donations in bin in parking lot



 ANSONIA -We are so grateful for the generosity of our community!

However, we kindly ask that you do not leave bags, boxes, or furniture around our building, as they create an additional burden for our staff and volunteers to remove and dispose of.
The only donations we are able to accept at this location are clothing and shoes that fit inside the white donation bin located in our parking lot. If the items do not fit in the bin, please do not leave them on the property.
Thank you for helping us keep our property clean and safe for everyone!
The Salvation Army Greater Valley is at 26 Lester St.
