The Salvation Army kicked off its annual Angel Tree outreach on Nov. 16 at the Walmart Supercenter, 2501 Walton Blvd., Warsaw. This is the 36th annual drive to collect toys for families in need in Kosciusko County with support from The Salvation Army Women's Auxiliary. Tags may be taken off the tree to shop for children to provide a gift, hat and gloves and a book for Christmas. Households are also given a voucher for food to help with their holiday meal. Walmart is a national supporter of The Salvation Army through Angel Tree. Last year in Kosciusko County alone, over $10,000 worth of donations were collected at the Walmart Tree. The tree will be in the foyer until Dec. 16 to collect donations according to Envoy Sina Locke, Angel Tree coordinator. Donations for Angel Tree may also be given online through a registry with Walmart. For more information, go to www.sawarsaw.org. Auxiliary members pictured (L to R) are Cindy Coppes, Sandy DeSanto, Mary Cordill, Jan Hammaker, Ruth Casner, Deb Frank and Tafra Krevinghaus.
