Supporting Christmas Angels

Christmas 2025

We adopted 10 children from the Louisiana National Guard Child and Youth Program's Operation Christmas Angels. We are putting on a toy drive for the entire month of November 2025 to aid in providing toys for these children. If we meet the wish / need lists of all 10 children, with time remaining, we will adopt more.

ALL TOY ITEMS donated will support Louisiana Army and Air Guard members who have registered for Operation Christmas Angels.

All toys provided must be new and unwrapped.

We've compiled Amazon and Walmart lists to help facilitate wish lists that were given to us. Lists are in order of need / desired. All items would ship directly to Books for Boots and then be delivered to LNG's CYP office in Baton Rouge in December. These lists will be updated if we adopt more children!
