THE GIVING TREE – 2025

ESA – THETA OMEGA CHAPTER

THE GIVING TREE continues to bring smiles to youth and families at Christmas. For over 30 years this community project has provided gifts to Clay County area youth, from families seeking assistance.

There are eight trees located in the Vermillion area including: Davis Pharmacy, Hy-Vee, The Vermillion Eagles Club, St. Agnes Church, Sanford Vermillion Hospital, Vermillion Public Library, Runnings and Walmart.

Each tree is decorated with tags listing items the child needs and wants for Christmas. Tags are then selected, gifts purchased and returned, unwrapped with tag(s) attached, to any of the businesses listed above. We also have many generous businesses and groups that participate by making financial donations or obtain tags. Each tree also has donation envelopes for those who would prefer to financially support but not purchase gifts. Tags will be available at most sites prior to Thanksgiving and are due back Friday, December 12th.

The Theta Omega Chapter of ESA, in conjunction with the Salvation Army, would like to thank in advance all area organizations and individuals who generously support this very special Christmas project.

Monetary donations can be mailed to ESA- Giving Tree, 514 Sharpe Drive, Vermillion SD 57069.
