FALL 2012

Exercise Compassion - The Kroc Center Story In 1998, Mrs. Joan Kroc, widow of McDonald’s founder Ray Kroc, donated $90 million to The Salvation Army to build a comprehensive community center in San Diego, California. Her goal was to create a center, supported in part by the community, where children and families would be exposed to different people, activities and arts that would otherwise be beyond their reach. When Mrs. Kroc passed away in October 2003, she left $1.5 billion - much of her estate - to The Salvation Army. This marked the largest single gift given to any single charity at one time. The gift was specifically designated to build a series of state-of-the-art Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Centers nationwide, patterned after the San Diego center. No other U.S. charity – faith-based or otherwise – has ever undertaken such a sweeping construction effort with the potential to impact millions of people. By 2013 a total of 27 centers will be finished nationwide, completing the 10 year construction project. Kerrville’s Kroc Center opened its doors in November of 2010, and is the only center in Texas. In keeping with Joan Kroc’s vision, the center is a place where all members of our community – young and old – can come together like never before, transforming countless lives in the process. When you join the Kerrville Kroc Center, you’re not only exercising your body, you’re exercising compassion by helping The Salvation Army meet the needs of young people and families right here in the Hill Country.
