I know there has been some of you who have done the adopt and angel program in the past. I just signed up to adopt an angel, but they didn't really send me any instructions, just a list of the kid's sizes/wants. When I take the stuff to drop it off, do I wrap it, or just put it all in a box, do I need to label every item individually?

If there is more than one child, you will probably have to wrap each item and label them with their names. 
It depends on the organization.
One group asked that we not wrap anything, because they were going to foster kids in a group home and they wanted to make sure all the kids had about even number/value of gifts. (In the past, some people have been overly generous and one kid ended up with an ipod and a game boy while another kid got socks and underwear--by not wrapping gifts, the organization could more easily distribute things). They did ask that we provide the wrapping supplies (paper/ribbon/bows).
Another group asked for each gift to be wrapped and labeled.
I'd just email or call the organization and ask.
