We're coming to your town!

The Family Giving Tree is a nonprofit organization, based in the San Francisco Bay Area, dedicated to fulfilling the holiday wishes of children who would otherwise go without gifts.

In 2008, we fulfilled the holiday wishes of 62,073 children in the Bay Area and nearly 2,000 children in cities outside of California.  In 2008, we were proud to work with Hosts and Agencies in the following cities:

Austin, TX Portland, OR Seattle, WA

The Family Giving Tree’s National Expansion Holiday Wish Program works with social service agencies in these cities. These agencies supply us with the names and wishes of the children they serve year-round. 

The holiday wish program offers private giving trees, both physical and virtual, for companies and organizations to encourage employee giving by displaying posters in their lobbies and by promoting the program in their newsletters and on Web sites.  It is the generosity of employees, customers and their families that will make this program a success.  By selecting an individual child’s gift wish online, or by putting up your own giving tree, these individuals pledge to make that wish come true.  With the online version, the Family Giving Tree will purchase, wrap and send the gift to the agency, which will present the gift to the child. Or, your company may choose to ‘adopt’ an agency in your city and buy, wrap and deliver the gifts yourselves.
