Giving Tree Donations Needed

The Social Justice Committee is reminding everyone that it's the time of year for collecting Giving Tree items.  Our tree will be in need of items for children, women, and men such as:

  • gloves

  • hats

  • scarves

  • socks

  • underwear

  • feminine hygiene items

  • washcloths

  • soap

  • lotion

  • shampoo and conditioner

On Sunday,  November 3, the Giving Tree donation bin will be in the Fred Ball room next to the grocery card table.  You may leave items as they are packaged.  Or, if you choose, you may put items in ziploc bags, just not the zippered bags.  We will collect items all through the holiday season to keep the tree replenished. Additionally,  monetary donations are welcomed and we will do the shopping for you!

Everyone is invited to help decorate our tree on Friday, November 29 at 11am.  A tall ladder would be a great help, as well.  The tree lighting ceremony is at 6:30 on November 30.

If you have questions,  please feel free to talk with Mary Williamson or Michele Markstrom-Frisch.  Our email address is givingtree@hvuuc.org.
