This is what
Christmas
can do.

Unwrapping joy. Sharing hope.

A little joy goes a long way

Sometimes, something as simple as a new toy, warm clothes, or a special gift from your wishlist can mean so much more. For a child in Nashville, it can bring excitement on Christmas morning. For a parent or guardian, it can bring relief during an already stressful season.

Because a little joy
can travel far.

Counting our blessings

Every number tells a story. Together, they show what happens when the Nashville Area community comes together to share a little extra hope throughout our community during the holiday season. While we have not opened up Angel adoptions to the public, our corporate sponsors have already been busy securing their trees for the season!

Christmas can be a season of celebration, but for some families facing financial hardship, it’s a time of difficult decisions. The Angel Tree aims to help ease some of that pressure, giving families the opportunity to focus on the dire needs of the winter season, while also experiencing the magic of the holidays.
