ANGEL TREE

ANGEL TREE SCHOOL SUPPLY DRIVE

The start of a new school year is an exciting time for kids! Let’s make it exciting for Angel Tree caregivers as well by alleviating some of the financial burden August can bring.


Throughout July, we’ll collect backpacks and school supplies. In August, we‘ll host our annual Family Fun Day for the kids and their families, and give them brand new backpacks stocked with just the right supplies for each child. This year, we have 44 Angel Tree families (125 kids) to bless!

SAME PURPOSE , DIFFERENT PROCESS, SAME PEOPLE


We again have a tremendous opportunity to love on numerous families through our Angel Tree ministry. There are a number of ways that you can be involved and together we will further build genuine friendships and expand our opportunities to encourage children in our community, a parent in prison, and caregivers with the love of Jesus.

ABOUT ANGEL TREE

Angel Tree, a ministry of Prison Fellowship, seeks to connect parents in prison with their children. By purchasing, wrapping, and delivering gifts to kids on behalf of the incarcerated parent, we help remind children of the love their mom or dad has for them. This ministry provides us the opportunity to build genuine friendships and to encourage the parent in prison, the child, and their caregivers with the love of Jesus.
