I am sure you are familiar with the Angel Tree program.  It is where you go and pick an angel off the tree and then go and buy gifts for that one angel.  Well this is part of the Christmas assistance program.

The Salvation Army Christmas Assistance program serves the Potter, Randall, Armstrong, Carson and Oldham Counties.

They are currently accepting applications for the Amarillo and Canyon Areas.  The Salvation Army will accept applications this week through October 23rd, and November 2nd-6th. The times they will accept applications will be Monday - Friday from 8:30am-11:30am and Monday and Thursday evenings, 6-8pm.  Applications can be made at the Salvation Army, at 2101 S. Van Buren here in Amarillo.

If you need further information on what items you need to bring in order to apply for assistance, call 806-373-6631
