YOU CAN ALSO HELP THE ANGEL TREE MINISTRY

Each holiday season, The Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program delivers gifts to families in need across Mahoning County. What began in the United States in 1979 with wish-filled cards on a mall Christmas tree has grown into a beloved holiday tradition, helping communities celebrate the spirit of Christmas.

As more of our local neighbors face financial hardship, your generosity helps bring hope and holiday cheer to those who need it most. 

Why not consider helping a child this holiday season? Donors pick a physical tag or choose an angel online. They buy new toys, clothes, or shoes based on the info on the tag. Then simply return the unwrapped items with the original tag attached to a designated drop-off spot by a set December deadline
