One of our favorite traditions each holiday season is participating in the Festival of Giving Trees in Southbridge. ✨🎄
This year, our tree is themed “Once Upon a Bookworm”—and every single ornament was lovingly handmade by our talented clients! 📚🐛
Each ornament represents one of our favorite storybooks:
🟢 Caterpillars for The Very Hungry Caterpillar
🐟 Shimmering fish for Rainbow Fish
🍪 Mice & cookies for If You Give a Mouse a Cookie
🐻 Bears for Goldilocks & the Three Bears
🐺 Wolves for Little Red Riding Hood
🎨 Color Monsters inspired by The Color Monster
Topping our tree is a beautiful star crafted from book pages, and at the base you’ll find several themed gift baskets—including Disney, dinosaurs, Cat in the Hat, and a storytime basket filled with books and puppets.
🌟 If your raffle ticket is picked, you win the entire tree and everything with it!
The Festival of Giving Trees is a cherished community fundraiser. Since its founding in 1998 by Sue Hapgood, it has raised over $1 million in support of Silent Spring Institute, the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition, and the UMass Memorial Health Cancer Center at Harrington Hospital. In 2024 alone, the Festival proudly donated $25,000 to each beneficiary.
We’re honored to be part of such a meaningful cause and to share our clients’ creativity with the community. 💛🎄✨
