Family Stores
The Salvation Army of Hickory operates nine Family Stores in its service area. Each Family Store offers great new and slightly used clothing, household items, and other "stuff" that is "another man's treasure." Revenue generated in our Family Stores help provide the resources necessary to offer individuals in our community a "hand up."
 
Disaster Services
Disasters are not scheduled. Hurricanes, floods, fires, ice storms, tornadoes, and other natural events don't wait for a convenient time to happen, but no matter what they do, The Salvation Army and its volunteers are ready to respond. These volunteers are trained to provide food, water, clothing, and comfort to victims and emergency responders.
