LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Note: The attached video is a report from September of this year.
The Salvation Army of Central Arkansas has only a week for 700 "forgotten angels" to be adopted.
According to the Salvation Army, the Angel Tree Program in central Arkansas provides Christmas gifts for more than 2,315 children each holiday season.
Next Monday, Dec. 7, is the last day to adopt an "angel," or donate wrapped toys or unwrapped toys and clothes.
“Your kindness will help Rescue Christmas for many families in our community. Unfortunately, each year there are angels who are either not adopted, gifts that are not returned and gifts brought to us after the deadline. These are our ‘forgotten angels,’” said Major Bill Mockabee of The Salvation Army.
For more information about adopting an Angel, or current volunteer opportunities please call The Salvation Army at 501-374-9296 or visit us at http://salvationarmyaok.org/caac/
