The Salvation Army’s Christmas Toy Lift is looking to deliver cheer to the children of people who are serving time in jail or prison this holiday season.

Under the program, gifts purchased by The Salvation Army are shown to inmates, who selected one gift per child. The children receive a card, handwritten by their incarcerated parent, and the gift.

The Christmas Toy Lift is supported in part by donations to the Tree of Lights campaign. For the past 10 years, it has provided jailed family members of Sarpy and Douglas County Correctional Centers the chance to give their children Christmas gifts.

What started as a program for approximately 600 children grew to over 1,500 last year.
