About Our Giving Tree Program
A Giving Tree is a Christmas tree decorated with ornaments that generous community members can select to help provide Christmas gifts and essential items for children in need.
Each ornament includes helpful information such as:
-
Gender and age of the children.
-
Donation suggestions, including toy ideas, clothing and shoe sizes, and other essential items.
-
Drop-off instructions explaining where and how to deliver donations.
The ornaments provide general suggestions.
Do the ornaments represent a specific child?
No! Giving Tree ornaments are not assigned to individual children or families. All donated items are collected and pooled together in our Community Christmas "Christmas Store."
Parents are then able to shop in the Christmas Store and choose gifts and essential items that best meet the needs and interests of their own children.
This approach allows us to make sure donations are shared throughout our community while giving parents the opportunity to select what is right for their families.
Every ornament selected and every donation made helps make Christmas brighter for children throughout Northern Utah!
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.
