Project Giving Tree at YMCA of Burlington and Camden Counties Helps Make the Holiday Brighter for Local Children
Make the holiday brighter for local children by participating in Project Giving Tree at the YMCA of Burlington and Camden Counties, a cause-driven nonprofit charitable organization.
Through Project Giving Tree, the Y strives to build hope and wonder for children by providing gifts to deserving children whose families face financial hardship. The Giving Trees are decorated with tags identifying a child's name, age, clothing size and other items they would like from Santa. The community is encouraged to stop by the Y and select one or more tags from the Tree now through Thursday, December 12 and help “Make a Child Feel Like a Star” this holiday season. Individuals and organizations are asked to return the star(s) with the wrapped gifts to the Y by Friday, December 13.
