Community Christmas Tree

The Community Christmas Tree is a way for the Brandon Valley Optimist Club to assist families in need during the holiday season. Nominated families request gifts that they would like (parents too!). Our volunteers make tags representing those gifts and place them on designated trees in businesses in Brandon. Brandon residents pick the tags they would like, purchase the gifts, and return them under the tree. Our volunteers then collect, organize, wrap, and distribute the gifts to the families. In 2023 we were able to provide 240 gifts for 26 local families and 120 participants! Please contact us in October or November if your family or a family you know could benefit or if you are interested in "adopting" a family!
