Columbia’s Angel Tree Project Brings Holiday Cheer to Children in Need

COLUMBIA, SC – Spread Some Holiday Cheer!🎄

The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the spirit of giving! This year, the beloved Angel Tree project is back, and it’s aiming to bring smiles to the faces of children in need across the Midlands. Want to make a difference? It’s never been easier, as this year’s program is entirely online!

What is the Angel Tree?

For those who might not be familiar, the Angel Tree initiative is a heartwarming program organized by the Salvation Army. The goal? To provide Christmas gifts to children who may otherwise go without during this joyful season. Participants are invited to “adopt an angel,” which means selecting a local child’s wish list and purchasing gifts that will create unforgettable holiday memories for them.

Getting Involved is Simple!

This year’s event has taken a modern twist by embracing the digital world. Thanks to the efforts of generous local sponsors, participating in the program has never been easier. Rather than picking a tag from a tree, you can browse through available angels online! It’s a few easy clicks away to bring joy into a child’s life.

Interested in spreading some holiday cheer? Here’s how you can get started:

1. Visit the Salvation Army’s website dedicated to the Angel Tree program.
2. Choose your angel: Take a moment to look through the list of children and their wish lists.
3. Purchase gifts: You can either choose to buy gifts directly or make a donation that the Salvation Army can use to purchase gifts on behalf of your selected angel.

Important Dates

As the holidays approach, it’s crucial to remember some important dates. The Angel Tree program generally runs from early November until mid-December, giving everyone ample time to make their selections and wrap the gifts with care. Make sure to complete your shopping by December 15th so that all gifts can be collected and distributed in time for the holidays.

Why Your Help Matters

Many children in our community face circumstances that hinder their holiday cheer. The reality is that not every family has the means to provide presents on Christmas morning. By participating in the Angel Tree project, you play an important role in ensuring that kids feel the warmth and joy of the season. Your **kindness and generosity** can create lasting memories and inspire hope in those who need it the most.

In fact, every little bit helps! Whether you choose to adopt one angel or several, your involvement has a profound impact on these little ones. What better way to embody the holiday spirit than through acts of love and giving?

Gratitude for Local Support

A big shoutout goes to our local sponsor, JT’s Automotive Group, for their commitment to making this program successful. Their contributions, along with yours, are bringing the community together during this special time of year.

Don’t forget, your generosity is just a few clicks away. If you want to learn more about the Angel Tree project and how you can help, be sure to click here!
