The Salvation Army Angel Tree program has opened registration for families seeking holiday assistance for their children, ages one to thirteen. Eligible families can apply online or in person at the Salvation Army Store located on North Tremont Street. To complete the process, applicants must present a medical card, valid identification, and proof of current address. The organization aims to ensure that local children receive gifts during the holiday season, supporting those who face financial hardship. Interested families are encouraged to submit applications before the strict deadline of November 15, 2025, to ensure their children are included in this year’s program. The Kewanee Salvation Army partners with Patchy’s Red, White, and Blue Christmas Toy Drive to fulfill the wishes of all the children in the area. You can pick up angel tags early to start shopping before they go on the tree at Kewanee Wal-Mart.
The Salvation Army Angel Tree program aims to bring holiday joy to thousands of children and seniors across the country. Families in need can apply for the program, which matches children and seniors—known as Angels—with donors who provide gifts based on each individual’s wish list. Documentation such as proof of residence and birth certificates may be required during the application process. Personal details remain confidential, and only first names and wish lists are shared with donors.
