Salvation Army’s resources spread thin, suspends meal service

Longview, TX — With the Salvation Army’s resources spread thin from its annual Red Kettle fundraising program, the local organization has suspended its daily community meal service as other nonprofit groups fill the gap.

Major Ernest Lozano, commanding officer at the Salvation Army post in Longview, said from the start of the Christmas kettle program until Jan. 2, the Salvation Army will not serve an evening meal to anyone other than residents the group is housing.
