Trees Wanted ~ Help BOSS participants have a warm and festive season!!

Every holiday season BOSS holds a community-wide gift drive to collect gifts, food, and warm coats for everyone in our programs. Of course, what would the holidays be without decorations? So we are also looking for donated trees - at least 10 at Ursula Sherman Village alone, where there is both a large emergency shelter for men, women, and families, and a transitional house for families who each have their own unit. And other BOSS programs need trees as well!

Do you have or know anyone with a tree lot who wants to show their holiday spirit? Or anybody who would just like to donate a tree or two? Send them our way -- we'll send you love, gratitude (public or anonymous, as you prefer!), and sing a few carols in your honor!
