The holiday season is a time for community, kindness, and connection — and the Keene Family YMCA’s Giving Tree is one of the ways we come together to support one another.
Need a Little Help This Year?
If your family could use some extra support this holiday season, we invite you to apply for the Giving Tree program. Each year, this initiative helps local families by sharing holiday gifts and essentials, donated by caring community members. To participate, simply complete a Giving Tree application —available here — and submit it by November 3rd. Applications can be turned in at the Y’s Welcome Center or emailed to Katie Gregory at kgregory@keene-ymca.org.
Want to Give Back?
On November 10th our Giving Tree will be displayed in the YMCA lobby, adorned with tags representing the wishes of families from our community. Each tag shares a simple wish — a chance to make the season brighter for a neighbor.
Community members are invited to choose a tag, purchase the gift, and return it unwrapped (with the tag attached) by December 5th.
By taking part, you’ll bring joy to a local family and help keep the spirit of giving alive in our community.
Together, we can make the holidays shine a little brighter — for everyone.
