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 or we can provide a tree for you if you need one.
-
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.
-
We will pick up leftover gift tags and trees after the event.
