Central Indiana Angel Tree Toy Shop

The Angel Tree Toy Shop plays a vital role in making Christmas merry for up to 5000 Central Indiana boys and girls. We count on the community's support to make this possible.

Christmas Assistance Program

      

Christmas is a joyful day in the lives of millions of people but for many families, it can be a time of stress and sadness. That is why we provide Christmas Assistance to children throughout the Central Indiana area. Every year, The Salvation Army tries to provide families with some relief through gifts and toys for their children through Angel Tree/Toy Shop.

Sponsoring Angels

Help us provide Christmas to thousands of families this year. As a sponsor, you will shop for your angels after completing this simple form. You will receive a wish list that was creating by the parent/caregiver after completion. We ask you spend $125 per Angel. After you've completed your shopping, you'll drop off your gifts at a Salvation Army location.

Corporate Involvement

Businesses and corporations are encouraged to join us distributing gifts to thousands of children. As a business you can sponsor Angels or collected toys for our Toy Shop. Many parents/guardians will be "shopping" in our Toy Shop for gifts for their children. You can also make a financial donation to the Angel Tree Toy Shop so we can make sure our shelves stay stocked with toys for children. Together we can help thousands of families make lasting memories!

When sponsoring an Angel, you should expect to spend about $100 on gifts. A wish list, that was provided by the family, will be sent to you once you've sponsored your Angels.

Sponsors may deliver their Angel's gifts to any of the below locations

 

 

 

 

All locations are CLOSED in observance of any federal holidays.

As you can imagine, it takes hundreds of volunteer hours to make Angel Tree happen.  From sorting bags to helping families on distribution day, volunteers are essential to a successful Angel Tree program.
