Angel Tree FAQ

How our holiday Angel Tree supply drive works, in four easy steps.

Select your ornament

Visit an Angel Tree location and choose an ornament (or a few!). Each ornament has a picture and description of an adoptable animal at our shelter or in a foster home, along with a wish list of their needs and our shelter’s needs.

Go shopping

Pick up the items you wish to donate for the animal you selected. Feel free to go beyond the wish list!

Too busy to shop? Every ornament also has a pre-addressed envelope for a financial gift. These donations are much appreciated and keep our life-saving work going. Please take an ornament even if you plan to give financially.

Drop off your donation

Schedule an appointment with us at the shelter so a staff member is there to receive your donation, and so you can meet the animal whose ornament you chose. We’ll also give you entrance directions, since we’re in a non-traditional location.

We’re very flexible with drop-off times. If your schedule is too full for an appointment, you can use one of our designated drop-off locations during normal business hours.

Hang your ornament at home

No need to return the ornament. Hang it on your own tree as a reminder of the life you helped, and enjoy knowing you gave our shelter animals a merry holiday season!
