The holiday season is a time when our community comes together in the most heart-warming ways and Giving Trees are one of the simplest ways local families can make a big impact. Whether you’re hoping to support a child, a senior, or a family in need this season, several organizations and businesses around Bell County host Giving Trees each year.
Below, you’ll find a growing list of locations where you can “adopt” a tag and help make someone’s holiday a little brighter. I’ll be updating this guide as more opportunities pop up, so check back often!
How Giving Trees Work
Most Giving Trees follow the same general process:
- Visit a participating location
- Choose a tag from the tree (each one represents a child, senior, or family)
- Purchase the requested gifts
- Return the items (unwrapped unless specified) by the deadline listed on the tag
