The Salvation Army Washington Worship and Service Center has announced that it reached its fundraising goal for the year, thanks to a rare donation received on Christmas Eve. An anonymous person donated a rare Queen Elizabeth II fine gold coin, valued at $2,500-$2,600, at the Giant Eagle Red Kettle. It’s the second straight year that has happened. “This remarkable gift will not only help us reach way beyond our annual goal, but it also serves as a powerful reminder of the compassion and generosity that exists within our community,” said Lieutenant Thomas Perez, Commanding Officer of The Salvation Army Washington Worship & Service Center. “We are incredibly grateful to our Anonymous Angel, our donors, our volunteers, and our partners who make our mission possible.” Reaching the annual goal ensures that The Salvation Army can continue providing vital programs and services throughout the coming year, including food assistance, utility assistance, emergency aid, spiritual care, and community outreach. The Salvation Army Washington Worship & Service Center extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to this success and remains committed to Doing the Most Good for those in need across the communities it serves.
