VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Monday, members of the Salvation Army cut the ribbon at a warehouse where thousands of gifts were stored and ready to be hand-delivered to families for this Christmas.
"Operation: Rescue Christmas" was the theme this year for the organization's Christmas Depot, since the pandemic made it difficult for families in the region to purchase gifts for the holiday.
