About this episode

Jamie Grout interviews Captain Tim North of the Newton Salvation Army about their services and community impact during the summer months.

In this podcast I speak with Newton Salvation Army Captain Tim North. Unfortunately many folks don't think of The Salvation Army this time of year. At Christmas they do because of the belling ringing Red Kettle campaign. But not usually in the summer months. That's why I decided to do this podcast. In our conversation we talk about the history of the Salvation Army in Newton and in the United States. He also gives us an overview of The Salvation Army Food Pantry and The Thrift Story. He also tells us with the summer warmer weather how The Salvation Army can help to keep folks cool and with utility bills on a limited basis.
