THIS STORY IS PRESENTED IN PART BY DRAKE DENTISTRY
The Salvation Army of Henderson encourages the community to help a child in need this holiday season by taking a name from the “Angel Tree.”
This year, due to COVID-19, more people than ever are struggling to make ends meet. The Angel Tree program of Henderson helps families in need by providing new clothing and toys to 400 children each year. Your generous gift from this registry will bring joy to a local child and help the Salvation Army rescue Christmas.
As part of its “Forgotten Angels Drive,” The Salvation Army also encourages the community to consider supporting children ages 9 to 12 that are often left on the tree in favor of younger kids.
How it Works:
- Choose the number of angles that you, your school or your company are interested in helping, and you will receive the tags for the desired amount. You can also choose a tag off the Angel Trees located at area Walmarts.
- Provide age-appropriate, new toys and clothes for the child(ren).
- Place the Angel tag number and name of child on all bag(s) of donated items.
- Deliver unwrapped gifts to The Salvation Army at 2292 Ross Mill Road in Henderson, NC Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. by December 11, 2020.
- You may also go to www.walmart.com/registry/registryforgood and enter your location as 27536 to select “Angel Tree of Henderson.” Items may be purchased online and shipped directly to The Salvation Army of Henderson.
