Final Call for Giving Tree Gifts!

You shopped and the Giving Tree gifts are beginning to show up at the church! Each year, that's when the Winterfest event begins to feel real and we know that so many kids are going to be blessed. If you haven't shopped yet and plan to, now is the time! The goal is to wrap as many gifts as possible this Saturday. More on that later!

To participate in the Giving Tree , use this link to shop from the Amazon list. This list was compiled from the wish lists of the kids chosen by their schools to participate in Winterfest.
Ideally Amazon orders will default to the correct address, but just in case,
the address should be, Franklin Pierce SD, 315 129 St S, Tacoma, WA 98444
Wrappers & Runners

So far we have a handful of people who will be wrapping a whole lot of gifts at 10:00am this Saturday, December 4, and we would love to have more wrappers. We also need more people to help on Saturday, December 11 at the event itself. Check out the list of roles we need to fill and sign up. it's going to be a lot of fun, and you'll meet some amazing people!
Saturday, December 4 at RVCC Parkland
  • Wrap Gifts at RVCC Parkland (10:00am)
Saturday, December 11 at RVCC Parkland
  • Set up for the event (9:00 to 11:00am)
  • Welcome guests and help them park (10:30am to 2:00pm)
  • Run gifts from the building to the cars (10:30am to 2:00pm)
  • Tear down after the event (2:00pm)

This will be an outdoor event again this year. Those who are volunteering on December 11 will likely be on their feet for much of the event and should dress and plan accordingly.
Other Ways to Make a Difference

Financial Contribution
Winterfest makes a huge impact on our community, and we welcome contributions toward this event.

It's a bit more challenging to host a large outdoor event, so we are looking for the following:
  • Christmas-themed yard inflatables to make the event colorful and festive
  • Extension cords to make the fun and festive decorations functional
  • Pop-up (EZ-Up) tents to keep the winter weather off of our guests
Coat Collection
In addition to the Amazon Wish Lists we are also collecting new, unused coats for kids 3-14. Coats should be brought to RVCC Parkland or RVCC Graham no later than Sunday, December 6
