Thsi is a lovely idea, and I’m glad I came across your blog in plenty of time to suggest it at my church for next Christmas.

Thanks, Sherri

I love the idea of “angel birthday tree”. Kids at church must love it. What do you think, Sandra?

I agree, Sandra – giving gifts is addicting! I also think angel trees are a great way to strengthen fellowship within a church and the surrounding community. I also like Jaki’s idea of setting up an angel birthday tree year-round (or during the summer.)

I just came across your post and I had to think it would be nice if we could have an angel tree year round and not just at Christmas. I think it might be neat to set up an “angel birthday tree” maybe for children who have a hard time enjoying their birthdays. Just a thought, wonder what others think of this

I did something similar for work. We generally have three trees – one for the kids, one for the local nursing home and one for the dogs home. Ir’s always a success because there are so many willing to give.

Sandra,

I think the only way children can grow into responsible, caring, emotionally generous adults is by being exposed to love and charity like this. This post has a beautiful message. Thanks for sharing this – I recently starting doing a similar event with my company this past Christmas and I have to say I just feel great about it.

Best,
Rick

thanks for the details Sandra. This is a very worthy and excellent concept. I adopted a family through a local business but just gave money and I think the company was going to purchase the actual items on their wish list. I like the idea of directly buying what a child has/family has requested.
