Giving Tree

. . . & Happily Ever After!

. . . & Happily Ever After!

A few weeks ago, we posted a photo of the Giving Tree at the Belfast Free Library, adorned with cards that contained the holiday gift wishes of 15 local children. Thanks to the general public and Belfast Garden Club members, all of those wish cards have been taken from the tree and are being answered! Special thanks to BGC volunteers Paula Smith and Linda Oskamp for spearheading this project and setting up the tree. The Club voted this year to make the Giving Tree a permanent part of our holiday traditions!

2024 Giving Tree at Belfast Library

2024 Giving Tree at Belfast Library

The Belfast Garden Club, with support from the Belfast Library Staff, is sponsoring a Giving Tree again this year. We are helping to make this holiday season special for 15 children who are in need of clothing, boots, shoes, and toys. The children are from needy families living in Waldo County.  The list of children is provided by the Waldo Community Action Partners’ Neighbor For Neighbor Holiday Gifts program. You can help the children and their families by stopping by the Library and taking a gift tag(s) from the tree located in the front lobby.  Gift Cards are welcomed if you prefer not to purchase…
