I took my late husbands clothes here. Then I brought sheets, blankets, towels and everything else that was in abundance from my parents house. What a blessing to know that they will be used and not resold.

Liars and backstabbers. I got in Thursday was Friday I was talking to this guy that runs this other program called the street team. I was suppose to be helping cleaning areas of Sarasota for three hours and I was going to get the help of finding a job and get rehousing after my two week probation as long as I obey and comply with the rules. Except. The director was making up lies about me and all around just giving me a hard time. These people are dirty. Don't give them an inch of this place. Now I am homeless again and I have to find another shelter?! That shelter is awful. They don't really want to help anyone they act like they care and they are already want to give up on you just after they put in some hope in you?! I am now having to find another shelter but in a different location of Florida?!????toa

Salvation Army used to be very helpful for the homeless people feeding people but somehow they've lost their way they don't let the homeless in there anymore they don't feed people but they out there with their kennels at Christmas time and all the holidays looking for money let's ask the important question what is this money going to and who is it helping cuz it's not helping the homeless which is sort of the idea of people give the money to the little buckets for to help homeless people get a meal and a place to sleep at night it's a disappointing organization now and I won't give another nickel to them they've already caught one guy and bezeling money and maybe more cuz something's not going right with this place anymore

I just called on behalf of my friend who is borderline homeless and was told that they no longer have emergency shelter at this salvation army. They told me the next closest salvation army with overnight shelter is in Bradenton and then hung up on me swiftly not offering any assistance.

A Christian based nonprofit that charges the homeless for services??? They did away with the free dinner program. They are in cahoots with the city to chase away the homeless population instead of helping them or finding a solution. The donated vehicles to the Salvation Army are shipped out of the state of Florida, instead of working with other nonprofits to help the poor. All the nonprofits in Sarasota are pretty much shady and work together to use and exploit the very people they are supposed to help for donations, grant money, the salaries of the executive directors, and to help their board members benefit.

This place is strictly a for profit company! The only allow 35 people in to pay them $12 for emergency nights. After payment they require persons to leave the property until 7 pm thunderstorms or sunshine it get out. You will also be woken up at 4:30 am and locked on an area called the " Porch" until you eat and are asked to exit the property at an hour that nothing else is open in the area. If you means to go somewhere else consider the opportunity with open arms for exit!
