December Giving Tree
For the past 4 years Nellie families have supported Nellie Families through the Giving Tree. There are a number of families in our community who are struggling to make ends meet. As a community, in December, we provide gifts for struggling families, food and help that is needed. If you are in need please email me at adterlecki@cbe.ab.ca and we will “adopt” your family this December. If you are interested in helping please watch for emails from School Council on what is needed. A sign-up genius will be sent out once we know what our families need. Recipients will be anonymous.
