More single-mother families and jobless people are turning to the Salvation Army for help as the high cost of living drives up demand while donations fall, Divisional Commander Major Robert Pyle told Barbados TODAY on Tuesday.
He said that although rising costs also impaired the Salvation Army’s ability to meet growing demand from vulnerable people, it would work to ensure none of its social services was cut.
Major Pyle highlighted an increase in homelessness and requests for help from people who would normally turn to the organisation as a last resort.
