Hackensack Chamber of Commerce hosts The Children’s Giving Tree

   The Hackensack Chamber of Commerce will again be hosting “The Children’s Giving Tree” for Christmas this year. There are no specific qualifications for this program but we ask recipients of the “Giving Tree” not be on any other area lists, so all in our community and surrounding communities who need help, can be helped. 

   If you, or someone you know, are in need of gifts for Christmas please call Theresa at 218-820-0790  or the Hackensack Chamber 218-675-6135 with the following information.    All requests have to be in by Friday November 26th.  

   1. Full name, address, and phone number of Parent(s)

   2. First name of children along with their age (0-17) and their gender

   3. Wish list of items each child would like

   4. Clothing sizes

   Gift pick up day will be: December 16th between 5:00-7:00 p.m. at the Hackensack Chamber of Commerce building. If you are unable to pick up gifts at that time, please call 218-820-0790 to make other arrangements. A reminder call will be given to all recipients the week before the pickup date. 

   This year the “Giving Trees” will be located in Hackensack at: Hackensack Do It Best Hardware, Mark’s Market, Swanson’s Bait, and Southside Fuel Plus and in Backus at the American Legion and Godfrey’s. Please find it in your heart to stop in and pick a name off the tree for those less fortunate. Anyone wishing to make a monetary or toy donation can drop if off at any of the mentioned businesses or the Hackensack Chamber building by December 13th. 

   Every Child deserves to have a Merry Christmas! Thank you and God Bless all this Holiday Season.
