Adopt an Angel Program


There's been a huge response to Family and Children's Services Rainy River District's Adopt an Angel program.

Residents are asked to take an Angel from trees placed at selected businesses and purchase a gift for the name on that angel, representing children involved with the agency.

Community Integration Worker Debra Bruyere says they've already exceeded last year's response.

"we would just like to thank the public for such a great response this year," says Bruyere. "We've been very happy with the stores that have come on board to help us. It's been wonderful this year."

Angels can still be found on trees at The Bargain Store and Wal-Mart in Fort Frances and Tompkin's Hardware in Emo.
