City of Wyoming to Host 9th Annual Wyoming Gives Back to Benefit Salvation Army Angel Tree

Posted on Wednesday, November 06, 2019 | Press & Media, News & Announcements

The City of Wyoming will host the 9th annual Wyoming Gives Back celebration at Rogers Plaza Mall on Thursday, Dec. 5 from 6–8 p.m. to benefit the Salvation Army Angel Tree.

Each year the City of Wyoming partners with local businesses to celebrate the holiday season and collect toys for the Salvation Army Angel Tree. Last year, more than 600 toys were collected for donation and with the generous support of the participating businesses, the City raffled off nearly $5,000 in prizes.

Event attendees who bring a new, unwrapped toy as a donation to the Salvation Army Angel Tree will receive a raffle ticket in exchange for a chance to win prize packs that contain hundreds of dollars of gifts donated by Wyoming businesses.

More than 20 businesses are hosting tables this year. The Salvation Army will be providing cookies and hot chocolate to event attendees. Residents are encouraged to bring their children to meet and visit with the Wyoming Police Department, the Wyoming Fire Department and, of course, Santa Claus!

A great lineup of local choirs and bands is scheduled to share the sounds of the season. The lineup includes the Salvation Army Band, Godwin Heights High School Choir, Kelloggsville Band, Godfrey Lee Varsity Voices Choir, San Juan Diego Choir and the Wyoming Public Schools Jazz Band.
