Executive, Volunteer Management (Part-time)

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

The Salvation Army always has a heart for the least in society. Since our early days, we have been providing prison support services for inmates and their families. Our work with former inmates helps them to reintegrate into the community, stay crime-free and be contributing members of the society.
