Adopt a Christmas Tree: add some holiday sparkle for our nursing home residents

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Greenewood Manor

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 7 people are interested

Would your club, youth group, scout troop, or other group like to create ornaments and decorate a Christmas tree for our residents?
Every year we decorate eight full-sized trees in our nursing facility in a particular theme. We currently have some our 2014 trees adopted, but we have room for a few more volunteer groups.

This year, our theme is GINGERBREAD. We'd like each tree to be decorated top to bottom in your own creative interpretation of the theme.

  • Trees and white lights provided.
  • There are some limitations on decorations due to fire codes for nursing facilities, but most types of homemade decorations will be fine. Contact Amy Shade for details.
  • Volunteers will be sent a flyer with specific guidelines and a list of craft ideas to help you come up with ornaments.
  • All trees need to be decorated between Monday, December 1st, and Sunday, December 7th. We will work with your group to schedule a time for you to come out and work your magic!
