    Volunteer with Angel Tree 2026! πŸŽ„πŸŽ

    Help make Christmas brighter for children and families throughout our community by volunteering with The Salvation Army's annual Angel Tree Program.

    Each holiday season, generous sponsors purchase and prepare personalized gifts for children through Angel Tree. Volunteers help organize sponsor donated Angel Tree bags, prepare the distribution site, and assist families on distribution day to ensure every pickup is organized, welcoming, and memorable.

    Volunteer Opportunities

    Volunteers may assist with:

    • Organizing and sorting sponsor donated Angel Tree bags
    • Preparing the distribution site before families arrive
    • Assisting with family check in
    • Retrieving Angel Tree bags during distribution
    • Loading gifts into vehicles
    • Supporting staff to ensure a safe, organized, and welcoming experience

    Whether you're volunteering on your own, with friends, as part of a school organization, or with a community group, we'd love to have you join us!

    Community service hours are available and can be verified for school, court ordered, military, or organizational requirements.
