The Peter and Theresa Conti Foundation has announced the 10th annual Christmas Angels program, continuing its mission to brighten the holidays for local Fountain Hills families in need.

Applications for this year’s program were distributed beginning Oct. 21 through Fountain Hills Unified School District to children in grades pre-K through seventh grade.

Any Fountain Hills family is eligible to apply, including those who are homeschooled or attend schools outside the district. Applications can also be downloaded directly from ptcontifoundation.org.

Angel Trees and Angel Tags will appear in the community starting the week of Nov. 17, offering residents the opportunity to “adopt” a local child for the holidays. This year’s trees and tags can be found at:

- Sami Fine Jewelry

- Russo Salon & Spa

- MidFirst Bank

- UMB Bank

- Fountain Hills NPOA

- Mountain View Kitchen

- Noon Kiwanis Club

- Sunset Kiwanis Club

- Four Peaks Rotary

In addition, the Fountain Hills High School National Honor Society will again support the program by collecting toys for “forgotten angels,” ensuring that every child’s tag is fulfilled.

Last year, the Christmas Angels Program served a record 200 children, all from the Fountain Hills community. Organizers hope to continue that success as they celebrate a decade of generosity and community spirit.
