Because of you, a child in our community will have gifts on Christmas morning. The Angel Tree is one of The Salvation Army's highest profile Christmas efforts. Angel Tree was created by The Salvation Army in 1979 by Majors Charles and Shirley White when they worked with a shopping mall in Virginia, to provide clothing and toys for children at Christmas time.
Below is more information about how you can get involved by hosting an Angel Tree, a toy drive, buying gifts online from our Walmart gift lists, or volunteer and help us distribute gifts and toys to families.
To ensure we help more children have gifts this Christmas, we invite you to host an Angel Tree, or host a Toy Drive with us. Below is more information about each of our toy collection programs for businesses, organizations, churches, groups, and others.
