THE spirit of generosity is shining in the Camden Haven, with the annual Giving Tree now in place at the Kew Corner Store to support Camden Haven Community at 3 Inc.
Each year, Community at 3 works to ensure local families doing it tough can still experience the warmth of Christmas.
Chairperson of Community at 3, Theo Hazelgrove, said the initiative has become an important part of the group’s mission to support the community during the festive season.
“The need in our community is very real, especially at this time of year,” Mr Hazelgrove said.
“The Giving Tree brings people together and helps us make Christmas a little brighter for families who may be struggling.”
Residents are encouraged to donate non-perishable food, gift vouchers, wrapped or unwrapped presents and cash donations, which are tax deductible.
Every contribution helps volunteers create Christmas hampers and gift bundles that will be delivered to families across the region.
Kew Corner Store Owner Staffan Andler said he is pleased to once again support the initiative and host the Giving Tree.
“We are very happy to be part of this again,” Mr Andler said.
“Community at 3 does incredible work and it means a lot to us to help make Christmas a little easier for local families.”
Donations can be made during store trading hours, with the Giving Tree remaining in place until just before Christmas.
