The Salvation Army & the Best NON-Creepy Organizations to Support Instead

What a Creep
Season 18, Episode 3
The Salvation Army



Ti’s the season for giving, and one of the organizations that encourages giving the most is The Salvation Army. Their army is stationed outside stores worldwide, ringing bells with their little red buckets asking for donations. They do a lot of good work, but unfortunately, they also have a history of sexual abuse and discrimination.
