About the Angel Tree Program
The Salvation Army still has 300 Angels who need to be adopted and gifts returned to the malls by Saturday, December 8. The
Salvation Army's Angel Tree program relies on support of the community to help
bring joy and happiness during the holiday season to these Angels. The program
will provide these children with much needed clothing items, special needs gifts
and other wished-for items such as toys.
This year more than 7,000 Angels were part of the Angel Tree program.
