The Phinney Neighborhood Center’s annual Giving Tree project kicked off this week. Stop by the lobby at Phinney Avenue and 67th St. to select a gift request for either a child or adult. The tree will have about 400 requests from families through FamilyWorks Food Bank, Greenwood House, Whitman Middle School, Broadview Emergency Shelter, and Childhaven Therapeutic Child Care.
Some tags ask for Fred Meyer gift cards, and you can even buy $25 gift cards at the Phinney Center office so you don’t have to go to the store. A portion of the proceeds from gift cards sold at the PNA will support their preschool co-ops.
Drop off your wrapped gifts at the Phinney Center by Dec. 13.

JavaTime next to Greenwood market did something similar a few years back, but through the boys and girls club.
Anyone know if they are doing it again this year?

If it’s more convenient, the PNA also has Giving Tree tags available at the Greenwood Senior Center at 525 N. 85th St. They’re generally open from 9 am – 5 pm Monday-Friday, so if you need to get a tag during the evening or on a Saturday morning, you’ll still need to go to the Phinney Neighborhood Center to get them.
