The Giving Tree project had volunteers from the community that partnered with four local merchants to benefit Community Access Unlimited – Runaway & Homeless Youth Shelter.

At-risk youth often come to Community Access Unlimited having lived in many places but rarely a real home.  The vision of Community Access Unlimited, Runaway & Homeless Youth Shelter is to halt the cycle of homelessness by offering engaging programs that enable youth to move forward to a safer, healthier, and a more productive way of living within the community.

The Giving Trees were placed at 4 local merchants by volunteers as part of the first TOGETHERHOOD project. Community members delivered 160 gifts to place under The Giving Trees and 72 runaway & homeless young adults had a very special holiday!

Thanks to our community partners:  The Juice House, Jersey Mike’s,The Running Company, Hilltop Bicycles.
