Angel Giving Tree program

Adopt Your 'Angel' Through JCP.COM/ANGEL Today!

For the second year in a row The Salvation Army and JCPenney have teamed up this holiday season to bring joy to thousands of needy children and seniors through the online Angel Giving Tree program on jcp.com. The online Angel Giving Tree program was established to assist The Salvation Army in the collection of clothing, special-needs gifts, and other wish list items during the holiday season to benefit children and seniors across the country.

In a few easy steps, individuals can visit jcp.com/angel to request an Angel by zip code, city/state, age range, and gender. The individual can then adopt an Angel from the corresponding list. A confirmation e-mail will be sent to the donor with the Angel's wish-list and information about drop-off locations in the recipient's area and ship-to addresses for online orders. The Angel Giving Tree online program allows donors to shop for an Angel online at jcp.com, in JCPenney stores, or at any retailer they choose.

In collaboration with UPS, Angel Giving Tree gifts purchased through jcp.com can be shipped free of charge to a local Salvation Army collection center- putting the entire selection, shopping, and delivery process at the customer's fingertips.  December 10 marks the deadline for supporting needy children and seniors this Christmas through The Salvation Army Angel Giving Tree program at jcp.com/angel.
