✨ 2025 Angel Tree ✨
Postijg kids now in the comments
Updated 11-13-2025

Missing 7 kids yet waiting for a couple kids to finalize their lists

🚨 I will add each card into the comments please adopt them and comment under the picture and screenshot it or message me and I will send a picture. 🚨

Message me with questions. I did interview most of the kiddos. You do not have to do a whole card, you can do part of a card, however if you do not do something on the card let me know.
We strive to fulfill most of the card.

This is a full Christmas per child.
Each family approved has a temporary hardship & has local employment.
They would not qualify for other state assistance or local programs.
Each family is referred by a client or business that helps with the tree. You cannot just message and ask to be on the tree. If you have questions about your child or family...I will share what I can or I will ask the family further questions.
Fact: Lots take one card and split the needs with a group or extended family.

We run our program differently than other programs! 🎄
All of these families could use additional household items as well.

All other donations not on a card can be placed under the tree and we will share them with the families they fit best with. Food donations can be left under the tree. Refrigerator or freezer foods into the kitchen (in my main hall). The deep freezer is plugged in and ready for turkeys. Pies and frozen veggies and rolls place in the refrigerator freezer. I do have more refrigerator in my office if we fill those.

Used items. Clean used items are acceptable.
Wrapped or unwrapped either way.
Any receipts leave with us or hang onto.
Gift certificates are allowed this year.

Wrapping paper, bags, tissue paper, tape is always needed.

📰🗞️ Announcement for Alisa

All of my travels are finished for the year! It's because of you I was able to flex my schedule and travel all over the place this year. I can't even recall all the places I have been. However I know I took 13 flights in the last 5 weeks...crazy!

Government Shutdown 😔
My husband is not getting paid during the shutdown.
It didn't affect my fall trips as they were paid for long ago.
October I worked extended hours to make up for that loss of income and I plan to do that for November.
Booksy will not show my extended hours.
I also can't do more massage than my body can handle. So I keep a list of clients each week that would be interested in coming in.

Package deals: We still have a couple left.

Holiday Gift certificates are available:
Dollar amount $5 and up
or
30,60,90 minute available

If you want a massage and can't find a Booksy spot, text me or call 605-661-0685
Spots change often on Booksy.

Rummage:
I have vacant office spaces in the front of my building outside my lobby door available for rent we are using for the sale.
Daily we will have it open with new items added often. Saturdays when we work I will make a public event or post about the sale.
Not only is it bringing extra income in for our family but it is helping me clean out my building basement and home full of treasures.

2026 Client schedule 📰 🗞️
If you want your annual appointments booked with me on a schedule we will book them and provide you a list or leave them in Booksy for your convenience.
Example Susan wants One appointment every 6 weeks on a Wednesday or Friday morning.

My trips and next year are not my travel year but I have 3 places I'm gonna squeeze in at some point but not sure when yet just to see a few friends. But book up your appointments and if we need to cancel move them we will.

Thank you for 21 years of Business! 🎉
You directly support my family year after year!
You directly support our community/office Angel Tree Yearly as well! 😊

Good morning~ 🎄 🎁

Angel tree announcement...remember our tree is different from others.

Our families are going through a temporary hardship and are required to have employment as well as not qualify for other assistance.
We usually approve 30-35 kids a year just because of our size we can't accommodate more than that. All kiddos are local.

2025 Angel Tree will be ready by Monday. We do have kids already on the tree I will post them on fb for those of you who want to adopt a child this year without stopping into my office.

Donations can be gifts, cash or food. If cash is donated I wait until the end and grab the stuff we are missing.

❤️ Items always needed: ❤️
🎁 Hygiene items - toiletries, diapers, pads
🎁 Bedding - crib size, toddler, twin, full and queen size (sheets, pillowcases, pillows, protectors, and blankets)
🎁 Toys, puzzles, board games, educational toys
🎁 Winter wear, hats, gloves, scarves, boots, snowsuits, coveralls for teens
🎁 Detergent
Dish soap
Paper products including toilet paper
🎁 Wrapping paper, bags and tape

Food~ annually we provide each family with a turkey or ham and as much of the fixings as we can. I usually need:

10 turkeys or hams total
Frozen pies
Canned veggies
Stuffing
Gravy
Instant potatoes or raw ones closer to Christmas
Any kind of food is acceptable if not expired we will donate to the families.
Often when the kiddos are home for holiday break extra stress is added financially for those meals.


NEW....We don't usually allow gift cards unless we have a family commuting for Cancer treatment or other reason but we will be allowing them this year. Gas station gift cards, food gift cards or Walmart is needed to help with family needs.
Please place them in an envelope and mark them by family letter (example family A)

We trust our process of family selection and do not worry about the need not being genuine.

Items can be wrapped but if they arrive unwrapped we will wrap them.
You are allowed a card but I always tell the families to give the gifts to the kiddos from them.

Drop off by Dec 19th:

Leave anywhere in my lobby by the tree, my desk, my staff only kitchen in the hall near my office, my massage room 1 (massage chairs in it), remember my kiddos are homeschooled so they are often around. Text or call 605-661-0685 to let me know you dropped them.
I need to know if it is a gift for a specific child or family or just a general donation.
Yankton Therapeutic Massage
231 Broadway Suite B (end of hall)
If my alley door says open...we are open.

Any gift receipts if you have I will keep. We rarely need them but when we do it is often for shoes.

Not currently accepting any more families we have a few we are waiting for the kiddos needs and wants list but will finish those as they come in.

Let's do this my Christmas Angels of Yankton!!!
😇 🙏 🎄
