West Seattle holiday help: A ‘giving tree’ that needs more giving

Many West Seattle businesses (and other places) make space for “giving trees” this time of year – usually decorated with cards listing gift wishes for people in challenging circumstances. Because of the time needed for distribution, some deadlines already have passed – but not this one. Natalie Dolci from the Salvation Army‘s Hickman House, a shelter for survivors of domestic violence and their children, says opportunities remain on their “giving tree” at CAPERS in The Junction:

If you wanted to come by the store get a wish list item for a child in need, there are three more days to do it!

If you have already committed to getting a toy or gift, there are three more days to drop it off.

Thanks so much, West Seattle, for being such a supportive community!

Any other giving trees awaiting gifts?

    There are 2 giving trees with many Christmas gift wishes still not filled at the Santa location at Westwood Village. Even if you don’t get a photo done at Westwood you can give donate a gift. All benefits The Salvation Army.

    Roxhill Elementary has a giving tree being sponsored at/by Caffe Ladro on California Ave. SW (between Myrtle and Frontenac). Benefitting some of our neediest families at Roxhill. Last time I checked, it was the wish list ornaments for DADS that had been left on the tree. Hope folks can stop by and help out!
