Angel Tree
Angel Tree

The Angel Tree Program is a chance to share the true spirit of the season with children in need right here in our community. Each angel tag on the tree represents a child who may not otherwise receive anything this Christmas. By choosing a tag and purchasing a gift, you can bring joy, hope, and love to a child’s holiday.

Each year, we partner with High Country Caregivers to have the Angel Tree Program. To learn more about their organization - check out the link High Country Caregivers Website.

We humbly ask for the essentials and something special:

  • A pair of shoes
  • A pair of pants
  • A shirt
  • A coat
  • A "wish"

If you cannot adopt this year, 

  • Send a monetary donation and we will shop on your behalf
  • If you are unable to donate, please spread the message with your friends, neighbors, & businesses
    •  

    Your generosity will remind these children that they are seen, valued, and cared for. Together, we can make Christmas morning brighter and create lasting memories for families who need it most.

Join us in making this season a little warmer, a little brighter, and a lot more joyful — one angel at a time.

To sign up or to learn more about this program, we ask you reach out to:
