With You Behind The Shield, More Lives Will Be Changed!

Behind the Shield, you will have the opportunity to transform the lives of others as well as your own.
As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to make a lasting impact. For more than 127 years our volunteers have been the driving force behind the work of The Salvation Army in communities in Bermuda and all over the world. Whether it’s by serving a meal, standing beside a Christmas kettle or stocking shelves at a food bank, you can be part of the meaningful work that continues to help change the lives of our local residents.

In times of despair everyone needs an army – that’s us. Standing proudly with us as a Behind the Shield volunteer, you will be part of a special group of people who believe that by being of service to others, you can find deep fulfillment in your own life.

By joining the Behind the Shield community, you are committing to the belief no one should be alone in times of crisis – and you are ready to be there, without judgment, for someone in need.

With the help of our many volunteers, The Salvation Army in Bermuda was able to serve 3,474 people last year at Christmas.
