Birney Giving Tree

๐ŸŽ„It's that time of year AGAIN! Want to make this holiday season brighter for a neighbor in need? UHCA has a great way for you to make a positive impact on families in our neighborhood- weโ€™re continuing our annual tradition of sponsoring the Birney Giving Tree ๐ŸŽ

HOW IT WORKS๐Ÿ‘‡

Neighbors buy one or more gift cards in any denominations (suggested $5 - $50) from local stores. Deposit them to one of the collection boxes around the neighborhood or send/drop off directly at Alice Birney School. The staff at Birney will then discreetly include the gift cards in packets going to Birney families that need it the most this holiday

๐ŸŽ Collection boxes have been placed at UH businesses where you can drop off gift cards by Friday, December 1.

๐Ÿคฉ Last year UHCA helped raise over $1800 in donations! Letโ€™s show our generosity to families who need a little help in our neighborhood and break that record again.
