AdventHealth has invested $1.3 million to help renovate The Salvation Army’s 50-year-old men’s and veterans’ shelter in downtown Orlando. The shelter is falling apart, and this much-needed renovation will ensure homeless residents have a safe and dignified place to live and access support. The renovation comes at a time when homelessness is on the rise; in 2024 the organization saw a 38% surge in demand for services and serves as many as 15,000 people every year.
