With it being the holiday season, shoppers at The Woodlands Mall in The Woodlands, Tx can earn their wings by buying a gift for someone on The Salvation Army Angel Tree. Volunteers from The Salvation Army will be staffing The Angel Tree at The Woodlands Mall, asking individuals to make the holidays a little brighter for a needy child or senior citizen from Friday, November 20 through Sunday, December 13.
In 2008, The Angel Tree at The Woodlands Mall helped almost 1,000 families in Montgomery County to have a better holiday, according to Lieutenant Lacy Parrish of The Salvation Army. ""This year, we hope to help the same number or more. Through our partnership with the Houston branch of The Salvation Army, in early November, we had about 29,000 children registered to receive Christmas assistance. Through the generosity of citizens at The Woodlands Mall and throughout greater Houston, we will be able to make the holidays brighter for every one who has registered,"" stated Lieutenant Parrish.
With numbered tags, The Angel Tree is decorated with information about individuals who are in need of a gift for Christmas, including children ages newborn to 13 and senior citizens who are in area nursing facilities. Based on the information on the tag, contributors can remove one or more tags from the tree and purchase appropriate gifts. For Christmas, shoppers return the gifts, unwrapped, and The Salvation Army will distribute the gifts in time.
Located in Center Court near The Information Center, The Angel Tree is staffed by Salvation Army volunteers Monday through Sunday during mall hours. Between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., any gifts that are donated after Sunday, December 13 should be delivered to The Salvation Army, located at 304 Avenue E in Conroe. Feel free to call The Salvation Army - Conroe at 936-760-2440 for more information.
