Giving Tree: Support Sunview Families who need some extra help!

Opportunity to help Sunview Families who need a little brightness added to their lives

The holiday season will soon be in full swing. In the coming weeks, as you are preparing for your holiday meals, shopping for that special someone, and hanging those stockings - give some thought to those that may not be as fortunate.  This year, we will be sponsoring some South Euclid-Lyndhurst families that are in need of some help from others.  The Giving Tree is always a wonderful way to spread some love from your family to another.  Starting this week, you can pick your star and make them shine with just a little generosity on your behalf.  Here are the families that we are supporting this year and a few details about what would brighten their lives:
Family of four- Family “A”- Boy 10 wears size 12-14  just got a used DS, so any used ds games for boys would be appreciated.  Girl 14 wears size 16 woman  likes jewelry.  

Family of Three  Family “B”- girl 9 wears 8-10 likes art projects.

Family of Four Family “C”- twins, boy and girl age 5, Both wear size 7.  Boy likes trains.  Girls like dolls and Justin Bieber.

Family of four  Family “D”- Girl 10 years old wears size 16-18 and loves to read (historical fiction, fantasy, and goosebumps). She's a big fan of calico critters, Hello Kitty, and Disney, specifically "Tangled" anything, and likes to make her own doll clothes. She has a game cube and likes Mario Brothers, Legend of Zelda, and Sonic most. Both kids love art in all its forms, and go through art supplies like crazy.  Boy 8 years old wears size 8-10  likes slot cars, matchbox cars (especially trucks and service vehicles!), robots, horses, swords,  The Backyardigans, and picture books, particularly ones about trains, trucks, and funny creatures.

Family of four Family "E" - Boy 8 size 10, Boy 9 size 9, Boy 14 size 16.  All would appreciate clothes and toys. 

Food, clothing (new or gently used), gift cards would be appreciated by all of the families.  

Important details:  All gifts should be returned to the Sunview Lobby no later than December 20th.  If you pick a star ornament, please write your contact info on the sheet to the left of the tree in the lobby and also securely tape the ornament to your wrapped package.  If you choose to give a gift to the families without picking a star, please label your gift with Family A, B, C, D, or E and make sure to clearly mark on the gift who the gift is for (Boy or Girl).  We are also accepting donations of clothing, food and gift cards for these families.  If you have any questions, please contact April Vince.
