BUY GIFTS FOR CHILD OR SENIOR
Angel Trees are placed in area stores in early November. Each tree is hung with angel tags containing an recipient’s age, gender, clothing sizes, and gift wishes. You are invited to select a tag and purchase items for that child or senior based on the information on the tag, and return the gifts to the tree.
Gift recipients must meet income guidelines and must not be receiving aid from other Christmas programs.
