McAllen Salvation Army Offers Financial Assistance Through ‘Love Beyond Labels’ Program
Struggling Families Encouraged to Apply for Limited Financial Aid
The McAllen Salvation Army is stepping up to assist individuals facing financial hardships through its Love Beyond Labels program, which provides support for rent, mortgage, and utility payments.
Limited Funds Available for Assistance
Frankie Zuñiga, a representative for the Salvation Army, emphasized that funding is limited, and applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
“The funds that we receive from the city of McAllen are restricted to McAllen residents. But we also get county funds that are able to help people from around the county,” Zuñiga explained.
In 2023, the organization helped more than 80 families stay in their homes and keep their essential utilities running.
