Area residents can help make the holidays bright for a family in need. The City of St. Charles employee Wellness Team is coordinating a Giving Tree program with Tri-City Family Services to benefit a local family. Beginning Monday, Nov. 17, Giving Trees will be on display at the Municipal Building, Public Works, and the Police Department with tags for wishlist items for the family. To help out, simply select a tag from one of the Giving Trees, purchase the item(s), and return the unwrapped gift(s) to the Giving Tree at the Municipal Building by Dec. 10. Items on the tags start at $5. The gifts will be wrapped and delivered in time for Christmas. “We appreciate the generous gifts and donations to this program every year,” said Sara Cass, Wellness Team member. “The St. Charles community has such a giving spirit and truly comes together to help its citizens in need, especially around the holidays.” Cash donations are welcome too and will be used to purchase items on tags not selected. Give donations to Kristi Dobbs at the Public Works Facility, Lynn Creedon in Human Resources at the Municipal Building, or Sara Cass at the Police Department. For more information, contact the Human Resources Department at [email protected] or 630.377.4446. –News Bulletin news sources The post ‘Giving Tree’ program to help make for happy holiday for family appeared first on News Bulletin.
