EPI's Virtual Giving Tree

posted on Monday, November 9, 2020

It’s no question this year has been anything but ordinary. But, as the holiday season approaches, we’re encouraged by the spirit of happiness and unity that this time of year typically brings. Fulfilling a need on EPI's Giving Tree does just that. 

The Giving Tree is a long-standing tradition that supports the needs of those we serve that would otherwise go unmet. Just last year, with the help of our amazing community, we filled over 400 needs including winter coats, socks, books, and more. During times of uncertainty, it’s critical we find creative ways to continue this tradition. Things may look a lot different, but the need for support has not wavered. 

We’ve implemented a virtual Giving Tree to ensure the safety and well-being of our community while meeting the needs of others and bringing them a little holiday cheer. 

Here's how you can help:

All of the needs on EPI's Giving Tree can be found here. Browse through the needs of those we serve, select an individual to sponsor, and make a financial contribution to meet their specific needs.

Needs can be fulfilled on EPI's website from November 9 through December 18. As soon as an individual's needs are sponsored, EPI will purchase the items requested and have them safely shipped directly to the gift recipient's home.

Though you will not be physically shopping for items this year, we hope you will experience the same level of joy that fulfilling needs on EPI's Giving Tree traditionally brings. Your contribution will ensure that everyone will have a gift to open this holiday season, and for that we are truly grateful.

We sincerely wish everyone in our extended EPI family a happy and healthy holiday season!
