OSWEGO, New York – Major Donald Lance, the Salvation Army Divisional Commander in Syracuse, visited Oswego recently to see the progress being made on the Oswego Salvation Army’s building construction.
The facility is undergoing extensive renovations and expanded services, as a result of their $1.6 million “I Believe†capital campaign.

According to Hayes, Phase I of the construction is scheduled to be completed in April 2010.
The Oswego Salvation Army has raised nearly $1 million of their goal for the campaign, primarily through the support of numerous corporate and individual donors within the Oswego community.

The Oswego Salvation Army is part of the International Salvation Army organization, which is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church. The local citadel provides food, education, services and spiritual support to the local community.
