Salvation Army Needs Christmas Help
November 28, 2009
The Salvation Army in Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties is seeking people to adopt a child or a family for the Christmas season.
“Instead of buying a gift for someone who has everything, adopt an angel in their honor,” said Yvonne Warthen Christmas coordinator for the Salvation Army.
People interested in providing support to a struggling family through the program have until December 10th to sign up. They can do so by calling (850) 432-1501 ext. 13 or emailing escarosa@uss.salvationarmy.org. Callers should denote the sex and number of children or the size of the family they want to sponsor.
Staff will provide the sponsors with their recipient family’s gift request list. The families’ identities will remain confidential, though sponsors will know the ages and genders of its family members.
The large number of unmatched children and families results from the economic downturn and a declining supply of jobs, said Warthen.
Angel Trees are located at all Members First Federal Credit Unions can be faxed or emailed from The Salvation Army’s office.
