Salvation Army Launches Multi-County Holiday Food Toy Drives

Various Salvation Army branches across the United States are actively organizing holiday assistance programs to support families in need during the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons. In Wood County, West Virginia, a Thanksgiving Food Drive is underway to collect shelf-stable food items for meal boxes, which will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. La Porte County, Indiana, is accepting applications for holiday food and toy assistance with both online and in-person options available, emphasizing the stress many families face due to the rising cost of living. Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, has launched its annual Toys for Tots and Angel Tree Drive, encouraging community members to donate new, unwrapped toys and adopt Angel Tree tags representing local children. Similarly, the Fargo-Moorhead area in North Dakota and Central Illinois are offering Christmas food boxes and toy sign-ups, with specific registration periods and requirements to ensure families receive needed support. Across all regions, the Salvation Army is also seeking volunteers and donations to help bring holiday joy to children and families who might otherwise go without.
