The Dover/New Philadelphia Salvation Army is hoping community members will help out this year by picking out a tag from the Angel Tree.

This is a way for the non-profit to provide gifts to children, says Captain Andrew Behr.

“Eighty kids signed up. Thirty more on the waiting list. Come get an angel tree tag and it has the children’s information and their Christmas list.”

Anyone interested in sponsoring a child can contact the local Salvation Army at 330-364-3811.

“Buy a few presents for them and then we will distribute them middle of December, but yeah, we need a lot of help with that.”

Behr stresses that gifts should not be wrapped since they have to sort and check through them.
