The Manchester Area Conference of Churches (MACC) will again participate in the Giving Tree for the Christmas Season. Volunteers from North United Methodist Church will staff the Christmas Tree at the Buckland Hills Mall to collect donated gifts for MACC clients on Tuesday, November 24 from 9 am—6 pm and Friday, December 11 from 9 am—6 pm. Shoppers take a tag from the tree, purchase a gift for a client (many are children but there are also adults) and return it to the tree. All names on the tree are pre-screened clients who have received MACC services during the year. The volunteers assist shoppers in selecting tags and accept the gifts as they are returned by shoppers.
The time slots for volunteers are two hour intervals. Please speak with Jan Miller (860-646-6619) with any questions.
