2016 Christmas Assistance Information Flyer

Who we are
The Salvation Army, The Joy Fund, Toys for Tots, Operation Blessing and the Angel Tree programs are
working together again to assist families in need this year. Families can apply for all four programs with
a single application using the process listed on the back of this flyer. Assistance for each of these
programs will then be provided at a single distribution site between December 15 th and December 20th.

Who we serve
The Salvation Army is looking for families in need of help this Christmas season. If you are facing an
economic hardships or household crisis and have children ages birth through 11 years old, you may be
eligible for holiday assistance this year.

What we provide
Children ages birth through 11 years will receive toys courtesy of the Toys for Tots and Joy Fund
programs; a food package; and the possibility of clothing items through the Angel Tree program.

What has changed

In prior years, families in need received program applications from their childs school. In 2013, we
began requiring applicants to come to one of the events listed below in order to apply. No applications
received outside of this process will be considered regardless of how you received it or from whom.

How to apply
The Salvation Army is not planning to schedule any additional application activities outside of those
listed on the back of this form. If youd like to apply, please plan to attend one of these events bringing all
paperwork noted.
