Since 1990, the Tree of Hope has collected toys which are distributed to Minnesota hospitals by the aviation community--EAA Chapters, the Minnesota Chapter of The Ninety-Nines (International Organization of Women Pilots), Zuhrah Flyers (Shriner's), flying clubs, and community volunteers.
Children who are having surgery, chemotherapy, dialysis, transplants, etc., over the holidays are seriously ill and need our help. Other major toy collections do NOT give to hospitals, so we are trying to fill that need!
We are collecting donations for 2012 until December 1 for delivery to hospitals the first week of December, but can accept toys and checks all year long for emergency needs and for the 2012 holidays.
Help us put a smile on the face of a child during a difficult time! |
