Salvation Army Urgently Appeals For Help As Christmas Gift Distribution Lags

The Salvation Army of St. Clair County is facing a pressing need for support as Christmas approaches, with over 600 pre-registered families awaiting gifts, toys, and food. The organization employs an adopt-an-angel format, with printed tags representing each child in the program. Unfortunately, many angel tags remain unadopted, prompting a call to action.

Angel tags can be found on trees at Birchwood Mall and the Fort Gratiot Walmart. Additional tags are available at the Salvation Army’s main office and online registries at Walmart and Amazon. To ensure timely distribution before Christmas, purchased gifts should reach the Salvation Army office by December 15th or the designated locations by December 17th.

The Salvation Army expresses gratitude for the community’s generosity and emphasizes that St. Clair County’s support is crucial for bringing holiday joy to families in need. 

For inquiries or tag requests, contact (810) 984-2679.
