Central gives to Salvation Army

Central gives to Salvation Army 3-2015

The Central Insurance Companies Educational and Charitable Foundation has committed to donating $25,000 over the next three years to the Salvation Army Capital Campaign. The Salvation Army is moving to a new site in Van Wert that will better accommodate its services and will use these funds for moving expenses, building renovations, technology updates, and to buy vans for transportation.
