Target & United Way Share-A-Tree 2009
For 10 years, during the holiday season , Target has teamed up with the United Way of Greater New Haven to "Share a Tree" to families in need in the New Haven region. Through this program, Target of North Haven and Target of Orange each donated 2 of their decorated display Christmas trees to four families in need identified by local agencies, New Haven Home Recovery and New Haven Family Alliance. Overall, Target donated about 3,400 trees to families and non-profits across the country. In these difficult times we all know how hard it is to keep up the holiday cheer, but thanks to Target, some families will be able to hold on to some of that cheer this holiday season. I cannot express enough what a joy it was to see these familes enjoying something so simple as a tree. It was a true honor to be a part of this and a big thank you to Target for making it possible. Christmas only comes once a year and for these families, this year was a true joy ! Happy Holidays to all!
