Hope United: Hope Tree Program

Hope for Christmas

The Hope United Program was established in October 2024 to fill the gap left when our local Salvation Army closed, ensuring families in our community would still have access to Christmas support. Hope United is back for the 2nd year to provide a Hope Tree for Hope Kids. Our goal with Hope United is to restore HOPE and build community during stressful times. We are blessed with a great community that has stepped up to make sure our Hope Kids are taken care of; let's do it again!. A child’s ability to receive gifts shouldn't depend on their parents' financial situation.

Applications are open from October 1-31st. Eligible children are ages 2 to 17, or 18 if they’re a high school senior. Gifts can be picked up December 16-18th and December 21nd during normal business hours. 

***Please note that if you are a First American, you'll need to apply with your tribes Angel Tree program, if applicable***
