Beginning Monday, The Salvation Army of Lawton will accept applications for Christmas assistance.
Assistance is available for any child between the ages of 0 and 12, whose family is eligible. Residents of Comanche, Cotton, Jefferson, Stephens and Tillman counties are eligible.
“The Salvation Army implements the application process to ensure the families applying are qualified to receive help,” Lawton Corps Officer Maj. Raymond Pruitt said in a statement.
In-person applications will be taken Monday through Thursday at The Salvation Army 1314 SW E. Online applications will be taken Monday through Oct. 31 at www.SAAngelTree.org.
“In 2022, The Salvation Army of Lawton assisted 1,800 of our neighbors at Christmas. We will likely exceed that number in 2023,” Pruitt said.
