*This institution is an equal opportunity provider.*
Angel Tree Program
Every holiday season, there are older neighbors without families or who spend the holidays alone. Angel tree gets the community members to give back by adopting an older "angel" and fill a box with goodies.
​
To be an "angel," one must be the recipient of one of the Council on Aging's services. Community members can either adopt angels or donate goods to help fill the angel tree boxes.
