The holiday season is a time for giving, and the Louisiana Methodist Children’s Home (LMCH) is inviting the community to help make Christmas memorable for children in need through their annual Angel Tree program. By participating, you can create lasting memories and bring joy to children who may not otherwise experience the magic of the holidays.
The Angel Tree, located at the Walmart Supercenter in Ruston, is decorated with Wish Cards, each representing a child’s Christmas wish. The community is encouraged to visit the tree, select a Wish Card, and purchase a gift for a child in LMCH’s care. Donated gifts can be dropped off at the collection box in the Walmart Vision Center or delivered directly to Methodist Children’s Home.
“It’s amazing to think about the joy on a child’s face when they unwrap a gift they’ve always wanted,” said Michael Garriga, Communications Manager at Louisiana Methodist Children’s Home. “But the Angel Tree is about more than just gifts—it’s about spreading love, hope, and the warmth of the season to children who need it most. Every gift donated makes a real difference.”…
