The Wish Tree Program is part of Spirit of the Season, a community outreach that provides Christmas to our neighbors in need.
To give a gift to a child this Christmas, visit one of the local businesses where wish trees are located, pick out a red bell and follow the instructions posted near the wish tree.
Gifts are requested through letters to Santa written by children from families who have applied to the program.
The letters are read and each child’s wishes are transferred to a bell that is then hung on a wish tree throughout the community.
All high school-aged youngsters will receive a Walmart gift card as listed on their bells allowing each student to select their own gift.
To give a gift to a child at Christmas, please follow these instructions:
Visit one of the businesses noted below and pick out a bell.
Write the child’s name and family number as well as your name and telephone number on the “Donor’s List” so that we may contact you if necessary regarding your particular child.
Purchase a gift and a gift bag and place the gift in the bag. Write what you purchased on the bell and tuck the bell into the gift bag. Gift cards should not be wrapped; place them in an envelope with the youngster’s name and family number written on the outside of the envelope.
Return the gift or gift card to the location where you selected the bell no later than Thursday, Dec. 9.
