The Salvation Army
The Salvation Army is a Christian charitable organisation organised in a quasi-military structure. The organisation reports worldwide membership of over 1.5 million, consisting of soldiers, officers and adherents known as Salvationists. Its founders William and Catherine Booth sought to bring salvation to the poor, destitute and hungry by meeting both their "physical and spiritual needs".
The Army was founded in 1865 in London by one-time Methodist minister William Booth.
