MDA Teams Up With The Salvation Army
For Its Angel Giving Tree Program

TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 17, 2005 – For the third consecutive year, the Muscular Dystrophy Association will serve as one of the official drop-off locations for the Salvation Army’s Angel Giving Tree program in Tucson.

New, unwrapped toys, books or sporting equipment for children and teenagers may be delivered to the MDA lobby, 3300 E. Sunrise Drive, weekdays between 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., through Dec. 16.

Gifts are donated to local area children in need.

MDA staff members in Tucson are partnering with KGUN 9, MDA’s “Love Network” station that airs the Jerry Lewis Telethon on Labor Day weekend, to promote the Angel Giving Tree program.

MDA is the nonprofit health agency dedicated to curing muscular dystrophy, ALS and related diseases by funding worldwide research. The Association also provides comprehensive health care and support services, advocacy and education. MDA’s national headquarters have been located in Tucson since 1991.
