Honor Society stands against a Salvation Army Bed & Bread Club vehicle after serving meals to hungry men and women on the streets, one of the many Salvation Army programs they've been involved with.
They’re working their way up the east coast for their Here Comes Trouble tour, but trouble makers they’re not – the young pop rock band Honor Society continues their packed concert schedule while partnering with The Salvation Army, making their next stop in New York City.
They will be wrapping up National Volunteer Week with a concert at the NOKIA Theatre this Saturday night, performing after a day of service at The Salvation Army’s Harlem Temple Community Center (for you New Yorkers reading this, the Center is located at Lenox Avenue and 137th Street).
Michael, Alex, Andrew, and Jason will work with 175 other volunteers to renovate The Salvation Army Harlem Center by painting rooms and murals, as well as building shelves for kids in the afterschool program. You can visit The Greater New York Division’s website here for more information about services offered by The Salvation Army.
When was the last time you went to a concert and the band had just finished a day of volunteer work?! And these guys have been doing things like this non-stop, from playing with kids, to feeding the homeless, to preparing beds at homeless shelters for adults, all as a part of the many Salvation Army Programs across the country.
They are a great example to their fans by using their talent to raise awareness of volunteering and supporting the work of The Salvation Army in communities around the nation!
After New York, Honor Society will head to Norfolk, Virginia on Sunday where they’ll be interviewed by The Norfolk Salvation Army’s monthly TV show, and then they’ll continue on to Washington, DC for a performance at the Rock N Roll Hotel Monday night.

The guys, always remembering to give back. The Salvation Army is blessed to have them on board. They never forget to show love! They were so helpful to me with my Girl Scout Gold Award Project in 2006 and they continue to share their gifts with everyone, even now that they are famous. <3 the guys.
P.S. Wish I knew about this volunteer event. I live in Harlem!
These guys really are special!!! No Duh!!!
Thanks for your feedback Cassie! If you’re interested in other volunteer events, contact the Salvation Army Harlem Community Center to see what other opportunities they have coming up. And we’re glad to hear that your past experience with Honor Society has been so encouraging. These guys really have a heart of service!
Thanks for your response Colleen, and we think so too! They’ve set a great example for other young people who want to be involved in their communities and help support The Salvation Army in our work to serve those in need.
