Our Pepco Edison Place Gallery transformed into Santa’s workshop full of hundreds of toys and gifts to support the Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program, which pairs Pepco employees with a local child, or “angel”, in need. The Salvation Army launched the program in 1979 to help families who may not be able to afford the added expense of toys and gifts during the holiday season.

Each holiday season, our employees sponsor about 100 angels across the District and Maryland. All the gifts are brought back to our headquarters’ facility, where our “elves” get to work sorting, packing and building toys and gifts. Through this program, we have made the holiday season a little brighter for more than 2,000 children over the past 15 years.

If you are interested in sponsoring your own angel this holiday season, sign up through The Salvation Army.
