Foster Angel Tree

 


For most of us the holiday season can be busy and stressful. For children, who see the lights and colors change their everyday world, it's touched by a bit of magic. However, much of that feeling comes from being a part of the event. Foster Angels is here to make sure children in foster care feel a part of the event, and to know they are in someone's thoughts.

The Foster Angel Tree went up Tuesday evening and the next morning we received the first gift bag! I hope we continue the momentum, as the tree is up about a week earlier this season to give everyone time.

The procedure is the same as before. Choose a tag, or more than one. Buy one or more gifts listed on the tag. Wrap everything up and attach the tag(s) securely to the gift(s) and bring them back to the tree. The deadline is December 16th at noon, and yes, I will send reminders!  Laurie~
