The Tree of Sharing gives people a chance to help those that are \u201coften forgotten.\u201d The agencies that are partnered with the organization help find those in need and find out what they are in need of during the holidays. They then create lists and tags for those people to get them what they are in need of. The Tree of Sharing organization is a way to give back to the people in the community in need during the holidays.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/civicengagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/207\/2021\/11\/Tree-of-sharing-3.jpeg\" class=\"size-medium alignright wp-image-3723\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>Teachers and students could easily partner with this organization in many ways. On their website, they have different age groups with different tags. A class could choose multiple tags within their age group and have each student bring in a gift for the \u201coften forgotten\u201d and wrap them in class and attach a handwritten letter to it as well. Another way that teachers could partner with this organization with a small group of students is to have them volunteer at one of the mall locations and have the students help gather the gifts from the people who are bringing them in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tree of Sharing is an organization that provides gifts to the \u201coften forgotten\u201d members of our community during the holiday season.
