Salvation Army Flooring Project

The Salvation Army of Savannah is requesting that volunteers to assist in laying new flooring in the emergency shelter for women as well as the emergency shelter for men at their central location of 3100 Montgomery Street, Savannah, GA 31404. In each emergency shelter, there is a central “day room” where clients relax and socialize as well as a main hallway and two dorm rooms where clients spend the night.

This project will help The Salvation Army create an environment where our clients feel humane, dignified, ready to overcome their difficulties, and form a meaningful and substantive life. The emergency shelter is the closest thing to home that many of their clients have and the only time where they may find safety and comfort. However, the wood and tile flooring has become fragmented, damaged, and uneven.

Providing brand-new laminated flooring that matches in all rooms would create a more structured, respectable, and calming environment for clients.
