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.


MAKING CHRISTMAS BRIGHT

become a teen angel

Every year, thousands of young children experience the joy of opening gifts on Christmas morning,
thanks to the holiday assistance and toy shop programs. However, often their teenage siblings are left behind.
Our goal is to provide exciting gifts for all of the Teens as well.

We are asking you to help. Please consider becoming a Teen Angel and adopting one
of our teenagers this year.
We know that it is tough to buy for teens - however, through the Teen Angel program families provide
a wish list, sizes, favorite colors, and other personal information to make the gift buying fun and rewarding.
Become a Teen Angel today!
