A Partnership with The Salvation Army's Welcome Home Project

We are pleased to announce that ANSAR of Pittsburgh has partnered with The Salvation Army Chartiers Valley Service Center to provide welcome baskets to families who are resettling in our area through their Welcome Home project. The baskets will help meet basic, tangible needs with essentials for the home, like paper products, cleaning supplies, kitchen items and tools. Baskets for children include school supplies and toys.
