The Evergiving Tree
Dear Uthoff Valley Families,
Uthoff Valley is sponsoring our “Evergiving” tree again this year to help provide gifts and other essentials to some of our families in our school who are facing some difficult challenges. Our goal is to provide the receiving family two outfits, PJ’s, undergarments and a couple of toys (less than $25.00) for each child under the age of 18. We are also hoping to provide the family other necessities such as bedding and kitchen items, if needed, and gift cards for groceries. But we need your help….if your family would like to participate, please take a tag from the tree in the Rotunda. The “Evergiving” tree will be available at the Winter Wonderfest on Friday, Dec. 4th, Thank you so much for your willingness to help others in need this year.
