Smiles Make the Greatest Gifts

Providing physical needs such as grocery, utility and gift assistance,
to emotional experiences including holiday events and traditions.

The Salvation Army's mission shines brightest at Christmas.

The Salvation Army celebrates the birth of Christ by spreading His hope, love and joy to less fortunate members of our community. In fact, our gift-giving programs and fundraising initiatives are a direct answer to God's calling to care for the poor, hungry, sick, and displaced. From physical needs such as grocery, utility and gift assistance, to emotional experiences including holiday events and traditions, to spiritual guidance that provides healing and hope, we work to assist the whole person through gifts that serve the body, mind and soul.

How we help brighten the holidays

Especially during the holiday season, needed assistance with everyday problems can help a family have the hope they need to start the new year. The Salvation Army assists families with temporal needs by providing food, utility, rent, and other assistance. Through our holistic approach to serving the whole person, we supplement every service with emotional and spiritual support.

 

Christmas Assistance

The Salvation Army provides extra assistance programs during the Christmas season for residents of Ingham, Eaton, and Clinton counties.  From working with the Toys-for-Tots to provide toys for families with children, to food cards for a Christmas meal, to Adopt-a-Family and special community meals, our goal is to make every Christmas bright!

Applications for 2023 Christmas Assistance opens at 9 am on Thursday, October 12th, 2023 and closes at 3 pm on Monday, November 13th, 2023. 

Sign up online at www.saangeltree.org.
