Angels Among Us began from the desire to spread hope to children and seniors during the Holiday season. We started our first angel tree in 2006 with a small group of Santa's Elves that helped pick, wrap and deliver gifts for about 150 individuals in Evanston. Over the years that number has grown to close to 400 recipients and we have huge support from our community volunteers. Our gift wrapping workshop (which Uinta County so graciously allows us to use) is often filled with excited volunteers that want to spread some holiday cheer. We wrap gifts the last week before school gets out for the Winter holiday so that all the gifts will be under the tree ready for Christmas. It truly is a magnificent experience for recipients and volunteers alike!
Our angel tree is designed after the Salvation Army Angel Tree, so please click here if you'd like more information. |
