It's better to give.

December 1, 2015 • General News

In honor of GivingTuesday, ?#?SpoFed? teams got together and selected agencies they wanted to help. We're pleased to report that several local non-profits were paid a visit in celebration of this special day. The response was overwhelming and the common feedback from staff was that St. Francis was right: "For it is in the giving that we receive.”

The teller team couldn't pass up the opportunity to help make Christmas morning special for kiddos in our community, which is why they chose Spokane Tree of Sharing to be their recipient. If the photo is any indication of the fun they had selecting toys to make good girls and boys cheer with delight, we'd say they had a great time! Did you know the Tree of Sharing has been helping families for over 32 years? ?
