Maj. Melinda Johnson joined CBS19's Bo Sykes to talk more about the year-long centennial celebration.
The Salvation Army opened its doors in Charlottesville on Feb. 12, 1912. The Charlottesville Corps has plenty of planned events, including a large celebration on May 4 at the Main Street Arena. For a complete celebration schedule, click here.
In addition, the advisory board has created a Centennial Circle of Caring with the goal of raising $100,000 by the end of the year. To make a donation to the Centennial Circle of Caring, click here.
