Virtual Giving Tree
The Garber Virtual Giving Tree provides gifts for local children in need from several schools and agencies.
Each child has three tags placed on the “Giving Tree” — one for clothing, one for a toy or need, and one for school supplies. Often we include the siblings that are in the household so each child in the family receives gifts.
Gifts are due no later than December 15; Gifts will then be distributed to the various schools and agencies.
We are blessed to share the love and light of Christ this Christmas season.
