STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

Looking for a way to spread some Christmas cheer?

Check out the Giving Tree at The Advocates and the Wood River YMCA.

The Giving Tree contains special requests for children whose families needing an extra shot of joy this holiday season, including those are seeking help from the Advocates. Items requested include jackets, snow pants and boots

Pick a tag or ornament off either one of the trees. Buy a special gift for the child described on that tag. Wrap the gift and put the adhesive label on the gift and take the gift to the Advocates or YMCA by Dec. 15.

Can’t get to the Y or the Advocates to select a tag? Call 208-727-9622 and a tag will be sent to you electronically.

Questions? Call Jackie at 208-788-4191.

ANOTHER WAY TO BE OF HELP:

The Advocates Shelter has a wish list of items that include:

  • Shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion
  • gift cards for gas and groceries
  • space heaters
  • healthy snacks for children
  • kitchen utensils, including blenders, knives, InstaPots and pans
  • ·new vacuum cleaner
  • ·new cleaning supplies, including brooms, dust pans, cleaning products, mops and buckets
