The Community Service Club has been hard at work constructing our Giving Tree

Help us brighten the day of children in the hospital this holiday season. Students can choose a leaf (or leaves) from the tree and bring it home. Purchase the item on the leaf and bring them back to school to deposit in the collection bin. Please make sure everything is new and unwrapped.

The Community Service Club will collect all the gifts and deliver them to a children's hospital. Any students looking to help further can come to our club meetings on Mondays after school - we will make cards and get well kits for children and their families to include with our donation.Woodlawn Giving Tree has construction paper leaves with words
