Salvation Army Opens Angel Tree Program Registrations in Oak Hill and Beckley

Bluefield Beckley Oak Hill, WV, October 2, 2026 — The Salvation Army has announced the opening of registration for its annual Angel Tree program, a holiday initiative aimed at providing gifts to children in need. The program is now accepting registrations in the Oak Hill and Beckley areas.

Families facing financial hardship who wish to enroll their children in the Angel Tree program can do so between October 1st and November 7th. This period allows for the collection and processing of registration information to ensure that assistance can be provided in time for the holiday season.

Last year, the Angel Tree program successfully provided gifts to more than 600 children throughout southern West Virginia. This indicates a significant reach and impact of the program in supporting communities during the holidays.

Specific details regarding the registration process, such as required documentation or preferred methods of registration (e.g., online, in-person), were not provided in the summary. Information on how the program identifies children in need or how donations are collected and distributed was also not detailed.

The Angel Tree program is a well-established effort by The Salvation Army, designed to connect donors with children who might otherwise go without gifts during the Christmas season. Donors can typically ‘adopt’ an angel, which represents a child, and purchase gifts based on the child’s specified needs and wishes.

Further information about the program’s operational details, specific drop-off locations for donations, or volunteer opportunities in the Oak Hill and Beckley regions may be available directly through The Salvation Army’s local branches. The registration deadline of November 7th is approaching, and eligible families are encouraged to complete their applications within the specified timeframe.
