The article that I chose to write about is titled, “The Salvation Army Calls On Donors To Help Their Neighbors in Need This Giving Tuesday.” The Salvation Army is the nation’s largest private provider of social services. They are asking for support from the public due to the rising number of evictions in the past 11 months. The Salvation Army made sure to announce that despite the rising operational expenses, they are committed to its mission of meeting human needs, without discrimination, no matter the cost. They also noted that with the donations from this “Giving Tuesday” that it will make a difference not only in your community but across the nation.

This article is different from news articles because the overall purpose of the press release looked different compared to what a news article would look like. The information was portrayed with a more formal tone and gave a quote from Salvation Army representatives. Overall, the message portrayed from Salvation Army in this press release was specifically tailored to a target audience to get individuals on board to donate to this organization to help people in need.
