Last week, middle school students concluded their annual gift drive for Family Giving Tree, delivering more than 650 gifts to benefit families in need this holiday season. Advisors received the families’ wishes in late November, and students spent the following weeks collecting the gifts. This year’s donation far surpassed last year’s donation and nearly doubled the number of gifts collected in 2016. The effort was part of Family Giving Tree’s Holiday Wish Drive, which has provided more than 1 million Bay Area children from low-income households with holiday gifts since 1990.
