The Giving Tree is a community project originated in 1989. We are pleased to again be sponsored by the Northumberland Mall for our 37th year! At centre court you will find the names of children across our County who would love to receive a gift at Christmas from Nov. 14 to Dec. 7. The Giving Tree provides for over 1000 children each year. Since its inception over 43,700 children have had a brighter Christmas because our community cares. We are once again depending on the generosity of shoppers to choose a name and purchase a gift for a needy child. Our co-ordination with the Salvation Army allows them to concentrate on their food campaign while we provide the gifts for the children. We receive requests for children from many local community agencies. Our Volunteers work 100 plus shifts at the Mall, assist in sorting the packages and provide delivery of gifts before Christmas
