The Giving Tree

During the month of November, Grainwood will be collecting items for the many children of need attending an elementary school in Brooklyn Center. In our foyer we have a Giving Tree that is strung with paper leaves that have needs written on them. These needs include mittens, tennis shoes, snowpants, boots, etc. New and gently used are accepted, and mainly younger ages are needed. Classrooms will choose a leaf and then are asked to bring in their donations by Nov. 23rd. Over Thanksgiving break, the items will be brought to the contact person at the school and distributed before December. Thank you ahead of time for any contributions you are able to make.
