Smiles Make the Greatest Gifts

Providing physical needs such as grocery, utility and gift assistance,
to emotional experiences including holiday events and traditions.

Donate

Every year, parents must choose between giving their children gifts or paying bills. Individuals facing poverty often spend the holidays without the warmth of a shared meal or even a support system.

The holidays bring added financial and emotional stress to families and individuals living in poverty. From gifts for children in need to special meals for those who would otherwise go without fellowship on the holidays and meeting other basic needs - we aim to bring joy back into the season.

The Salvation Army helps make
spirits brighter at Christmas through:

The Angel Tree (Adopt-A-Child) 

The Angel Tree program gives each child the chance to have an extra special Christmas. Each Angel tag features a wish list from a child in Summit County. To protect the privacy of families, each child is identified by a unique number rather than their name. Every gift provided will reach the chosen child.

Create-A-Christmas

The Create-A-Christmas (CAC) program is here for families whose needs go beyond the ordinary. It’s designed to provide that little bit of extra care, hope, and holiday magic, bringing warmth and joy to those who need it most.
