Angel Tree 2023: Give a gift to Chicago-area children in need this holiday

Help thousands of Chicago-area children experience the joy of opening presents this holiday season.

NBC 5, Telemundo Chicago, NBC Sports Chicago and the Salvation Army are partnering once again for the Angel Adoption Tree program.

The Angel Adoption Tree program facilitates the donation of toys for children in need in the Chicago area. Help thousands of Chicago-area children experience the joy of opening presents this holiday season.

Hereā€™s how the virtual version of Angel Adoption Tree works:

Once you click on the link, it will immediately bring you to the ā€œHomeā€ page which contains helpful instructions on how to return your gift to The Salvation Army (this will also be emailed to you once you create an account!).

From the top menu bar, select ā€œSearch Angels.ā€ Once on this page, choose from a long list of male and female Angels ages 0-12 (you can specify these settings on the left-hand side of the page).

Once you have found an Angel you want to adopt, click the green ā€œAddā€ button. You will see the number next to the ā€œAdopt Selected Angelsā€ tab change from 0 to 1 (or higher if you are adopting more than one Angel).

Click on ā€œAdopt Selected Angelsā€ and, once you have reviewed the Angels you have decided to adopt, click the green ā€œAdopt Angelsā€ button.

From here, you will be prompted to create a Donor Account so we can email your Angel information. Once you create your Donor Account, you will be able to adopt your Angel!

All unwrapped gifts can be shipped to or dropped off at The Salvation Army. This applies to gifts purchased online or gifts bought in a store. Please mail the unwrapped gift(s) with the tag attached to the address below.
