The 2024 Marbridge Giving Tree
There has been a little confusion this year as we kick-off our Giving Tree, so we want to provide a little more clarification! The Marbridge Giving Tree is back for another Holiday Season, and you can help spread Christmas spirit across campus.
The Marbridge Giving Tree allows our residents the opportunity to have a merry Christmas morning. Our residents, along with communities, Training & Education program, and more share their wants and needs for the holiday season and our elves compile that list to share with you. You, our amazing supporters, can help fulfill those wishes by claiming a Giving Tree tag(s). Below are the steps to claim your tag(s).
You can ask specifically for tags that fall within price ranges, request to support residents at a specific care community (i.e. Village, Ranch, or Villa), or you can request to support tags from a specific program (i.e. Training & Education). Your requests may also include supporting residents with interests you want to support such as clothing items, movies, sports equipment, or even something more specific like the Golden Girls!
Once you submit your request to receive a Giving Tree tag(s), one of our elves will reach out through email with your tag(s) within 48-hours. On your tag will be the items requested from the specifications you had.
After you receive your tag(s), it’s time to shop and send the requested items from your tag(s) to campus. You can have gifts shipped directly to campus from any online store (i.e. Amazon.com, Wallmart.com, Target.com, etc), but please include your tag number(s) so your gifts can be easily identified.
When your gifts arrive to campus our Giving Tree Elves will sort the items to make sure Santa can deliver them to the proper area of campus on Christmas morning.
Each Giving Tree tag also has a unique tag number attached to it. Sending your items with the tag included, helps our elves sort the items much easier.
You can claim a Giving Tree tag until Friday, December 13.
