LOCAL CHILDREN.THOUGHTFUL GIFTS.ONE GENEROUS COMMUNITY.
Our hometown. Our tradition.
For Fresno.
With love.
For years, FresYes agents, neighbors and local businesses have come together to make Christmas a little brighter for children in our community.
Through the Salvation Army's Angel Tree program, sponsors receive a child's gift wishes and help turn them into something special. In 2026, we're showing up again. One child, one thoughtful gift, one act of kindness at a time.

Before you bring your giftsA little checklist.
A little checklist.
A big help to our team.
- Leave every gift unwrapped.
- Preferably place each child's gifts together in a trash bag.
- Securely staple the child's Angel Tree tag to the bag.
- Let Ashley check in your gifts so every assigned angel is accounted for.
Not able to return your gifts on time? Tell Ashley as soon as possible so the team can help.
Good questions. Clear answers.
A few things
you might be wondering.
01How do I sponsor a child?
Tell Ashley how many children you would like to sponsor. She will confirm availability and send your assigned Angel Tree information privately. A request is not an assignment until Ashley confirms it.
02Can I sponsor siblings or participate with a team?
Absolutely. You can request multiple children, or participate with friends, family or coworkers. We do our best to keep siblings and families together when assigning angels, but cannot guarantee a particular family or group.
03What should I buy?
Use the gift wishes and sizes on your assigned Angel Tree information. Choose thoughtful gifts within your budget. If a wish is unclear or an item is unavailable, ask Ashley before substituting. The Salvation Army program provides new gifts; return gifts unwrapped.
04Can someone shop on my behalf?
Ask Ashley about shopping assistance. The 2026 contribution amount and approved payment method have not yet been confirmed on this website. Request current instructions by email; do not use a payment link or price from a previous year.
05When and where do I return the gifts?
Return gifts to the FresYes office at 8469 N. Millbrook Ave #106, Fresno, CA 93720 by Wednesday, December 9, 2026. Exact cutoff time and office hours are pending confirmation. Email Ashley before planning your visit. Leave gifts unwrapped; preferably put each child's gifts in a trash bag with that child's Angel Tree tag securely stapled to the bag.
06I need holiday assistance for my family. Is this the application?
This website is for people who want to sponsor gifts. FresYes does not enroll families or determine eligibility. Contact your local Salvation Army through the official holiday-giving page linked below to ask about assistance, eligibility and current application availability. Visit the official Salvation Army page.
07Will children's information appear online?
No. Children’s identities, wishes, tags and assignments are shared privately with confirmed sponsors, not displayed on this website. Please do not post tags or identifying information on social media.
Fresno always finds a way to give.
