About Our Giving Tree Program
What is a Giving Tree?
A Giving Tree is a Christmas tree with ornaments for generous people to select to donate Christmas gifts for children in need.
These ornaments include the following information:
-
Gender and age of the children
-
Donation suggestions for children such as: toy ideas, clothing and shoe size, hygiene items, etc. The ornaments suggest the general needs that the families we are serving have requested.
-
Drop-off instructions
The ornaments do NOT get assigned to a specific child. The donations get pooled together and put into our "Christmas Store" area for the parents to shop from the items and select what their children need.
We need as many Giving Tree locations as possible
because we have 2,000 kids to provide for!
How do I sponsor a Giving Tree?
-
You can use a Christmas Tree you would already use to decorate your lobby.
-
We will deliver the ornaments to your location the first part on November.
-
Hang the paper ornaments on your tree or in your lobby.
-
Put a collection box next to the tree or a safe place.
-
We will come to pick up the donations as needed. The deadline for donations is listed on the ornaments.
