ORLANDO, Fla. – News 6 and BFARR Contracting are teaming up with The Salvation Army for the annual Angel Tree program.
Angel Tree is a way to spread holiday cheer and make sure children and seniors around Central Florida wake up to gifts on Christmas morning.
The program kicks off Nov. 19 with 6,000 angels up for adoption. This year, 5,000 angels represent a child ranging from infant to 14 years old in Orange and Osceola counties. The other 1,000 angels are seniors who might not have a Christmas if it were not for Angel Tree donations.
To keep everyone safe, you can adopt your Angel virtually this year and in person at participating locations.
To adopt virtually:
- Visit SalvationArmyOrlando.org and click on the Angel Tree tab from the menu bar.
- Click the “Adopt an Angel” button to be re-routed directly to the Angel adoption site for Orange and Osceola counties.
- Sort through a variety of Angels and select the one(s) you wish to adopt.
- Select from one of the three drop-off locations, even if you plan to deliver or drop off your gifts.
- Print tag/adoption confirmation.
To adopt in person:
Donors can choose to adopt an angel from locations across Central Florida, including the Mall at Millenia, participating Chick-fil-A restaurants and participating Walmart stores.
You can also return your gifts or have them shipped directly to the Salvation Army at this address:
