Angel Tree Program needs your help

by | Nov 17, 2022 | Area news, Latest, Life & Style

The Farmersville Outreach Alliance Angel Tree Program is amid its busy season signing up, and then collecting gifts for the children in need.

Organizer Judy Brandon said they have 177 Angels signed up and volunteers won’t rest until all the Angels are adopted.

“We are hoping to get the word out to the community that we need people to

“adopt” some children,” she said.
