Recruiting Christmas Super Heroes 2016
Sunday, December 11, 2016

Sharing Tree is a year round organization with the mission of serving families in need by providing a dignified shopping experience at no cost. The agency was originally founded as Christmas Connection in 1981 by Barbara Fagin with the belief that every child deserved a new toy and coat for Christmas. What started as a seasonal agency has grown to serve the community throughout the year and in December of 2015 Christmas Connection was renamed to Sharing Tree. We continue to stay true to our founding as we provide Christmas to families in need each year.

Sharing Tree serves the community through 4 different programs including:

 

  • Community Connection: Families select daily living items such as gently used clothing, shoes, and general household items.
  • Crisis Connection: Families that have experienced a total loss due to a disaster select items to help rebuild their lives including sheets, dishes, towels, clothing, and other needed items.
  • Classroom Connection: Families with children enrolled in OKC Public Schools select both new and gently used uniform pieces to ensure the children meet school policy and can attend class.
  • Christmas Connection: Families select clothes, shoes, books, and more for each family member as well as a new toy and a new or gently used coat or jacket for each child.

 

The families served through these programs are struggling to meet basic needs such as food and monthly rent. Families that need a helping hand. With your help we can continue to help Oklahoma families in need.
