The Giving Tree: Give Christmas to a needy Family

MACANP made a donation from our group to the Giving Tree again this year. They provide approximately 500 students with Christmas gifts. This year there are more families in need then ever. Please consider giving to this wonderful project. 

The Giving Tree Project
Sponsored by: Manatee County Student Services
Community Partnership and Resource Committee
Chairperson: Kami Lake-School Social Worker, Alex Corona-School Social Worker

What do we do? The Giving Tree Project covers Christmas wishes and needs for over 500 Manatee County students each year. We have been doing this project for the past twenty years.

How can you help?
1. Adopt a family or a student to shop for. Contact Alex Corona via email: corona2a@manateeschools.net for more information. We would need all gifts wrapped by December 9th and dropped off at the Professional Support Center or Alex can pick them up if needed.

2. Make a monetary donation by November 30th. Cash or check made out to Kami Lake. (Kami will give you the receipts if you wish.) Many businesses opt to give a monetary donation and let Kami and her team of elves shop for the gifts. Please call or text Alex if you wish to make a monetary donation. Monetary donations can be mailed to:

Kami Lake
311 31st Street West
Bradenton, FL 34205

Or Kami/Alex can pick it up from you.
