It Starts with a Gift

Prison Fellowship Angel Tree™ offers incarcerated parents a pathway to restore and strengthen relationships with their children and families. Every Christmas, Angel Tree® works with local churches and organizations to minister to hundreds of thousands of prisoners’ children by delivering a gift and a personal message of love in the name of their mom or dad behind bars.

 

 

But Angel Tree doesn’t end at Christmas. Angel Tree families are connected to supportive communities to help families thrive. Many Angel Tree ministry partners continue to support and encourage families throughout the year. And children registered for Angel Tree are eligible for other Angel Tree programs. Read more about our full suite of Angel Tree programs below.

Opportunity Kids

In 5 urban centers Angel Tree collaborated with community partners to provide more holistic and intensive support to 50 Angel Tree kids and other at-risk kids. Opportunity Kids moved from vulnerable beginnings to victorious futures by participating in college visit days, dental clinics, career days, financial literacy classes, and more. We plan to grow to 11 urban centers by 2025.

Mentoring

Children of prisoners are at a greater risk for a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems. Prison Fellowship has partnered with 12 national mentoring organizations to match vulnerable children with caring mentors in their community. Studies indicate that mentoring by a caring adult is the single most effective strategy to build character and curb destructive behavior.
