Angel Tree Project
During the Christmas Extravaganza, we also launch the Angel Tree Project, a cherished annual tradition where we come together to provide gifts to underprivileged children in our area. By selecting the name of a child from the Angel Tree and generously purchasing a gift for them, we ensure they experience the warmth of the holiday season and know that they are cared for by their community.
