will once again be sponsoring a HOLIDAY GIVING TREE to benefit families in the Pittsford community who need a little extra support around the holidays.

The trees will be located at the Pittsford Community Center
and outside the Pittsford Library near Starbucks,
between November 21st and December 15th.
PYS social workers then organize and deliver the donations to the families in time for the Christmas school break.
HOW IT WORKS
Take a tag from the tree and return it with a gift card by December 15th. Donations can be returned to the Community Center Information Desk, or sent to the PYS office in the envelopes provided. If you wish to let us pick the gift cards you can donate online by clicking
HERE
or by mailing a check made out to PYS to 4 South Main Street, Pittsford, NY 14534.
Some of the most useful gift cards for families in need:
Wegmans l Tops l Walmart l Target l Dick’s Sporting Goods l Marshalls l Gas Cards l Pontillo’s l Dunkin Donuts
- One $100 grocery card can provide a holiday dinner for a whole family.
- A $50 gift card to a clothing store will buy a much needed outfit for a child.
- A $25 gift card to Target or Walmart will buy a small toy for a child.

A FREE three-day summer bereavement camp held every summer for children who are adjusting to the death of a loved one.

Grief is difficult for everyone. It can be especially confusing for children who do not have life experiences and resources to draw on during difficult times. Camp helps fill that gap.
