This substantial gift, appraised at $900,000, will establish an endowment to provide sustained annual funding to the Jamestown Salvation Army service center for many decades to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to leaving a legacy benefitting the community, the gift arrives at an important time for the Jamestown service center as it works toward assisting a greater number of people in need in the Stutsman County area. The center\u2019s primary focus is to provide relief to those facing food insecurity, rental assistance to avoid eviction, utility help to avert disconnection, Christmas gifts for children in need, and providing emergency hotel stays to those experiencing homelessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The farmland bequest will create a dependable source of funding that ensures the Jamestown service center can continue to offer its services and grow in its capacity to serve the community. With this endowment in place, the Jamestown Salvation Army can focus on delivering food, financial aid, and social services to vulnerable individuals and families across the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are deeply grateful for this extraordinary gift. It will not only sustain our efforts but enable us to grow in new directions,\u201d said Jerry Bergquist, Jamestown Salvation Army advisory board chairman. \u201cPlanned gifts such as this one have an enormous impact on our community and it creates a lasting legacy for the people we serve, helping to ensure that we can be there for those in need for many years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out more about supporting the Jamestown Salvation Army and how it serves the community by visiting <a href=\"https:\/\/u7061146.ct.sendgrid.net\/ls\/click?upn=u001.gqh-2BaxUzlo7XKIuSly0rC0Y573tFk9AZjTYInlGZSTefGpmIm6kz0J35EAXm2vsXC3ia-2F2y8v551w8tRsayRPOl6sXfvC43Sybve2EJmvDM-3D9L-h_Tr8L9iiBzmzultMf8Nh1Wfm4KtoILHAXpE6t-2BMmlgkovAgCOemjydm3ov0xWjBIaSEAFW7NacaQzAQp03st44XOjR-2FkrjPXuvC9rGHDCOsJj9X-2Fd3Fzt18hyGpLgW-2Fk7EfIAba4uJS-2FqX8Itpd0upICVWcwH3NDaeXhrRhu-2FqLJwniUnBTzM-2BfufODc2OsVYqFkI-2F56mexpF5Acq14LEv118YhHKWlsdw-2FLVbgX2dsbkZ-2Fiaf-2Fa0X90FzdBub50SPX-2B53dzPxm6cacYMpV12NGdtxehVNUnfZlW83aG9q06UV9wqbs3zTXeKAX62C4KMb7J9M8mcIeWVXQRsWf8vpA-3D-3D\">CentralUSA.SalvationArmy.org\/northern\/Jamestown<\/a>.
