Community Giving
Tree
McKinley Memorial Library will be one
of the locations at which donations may be
made to the
Niles Community
Services through the Community Giving Tree.
Ornaments made by the NCS agency will adorn the
tree on display at the Library.
Each ornament will have a tag attached to it
describing a child in need and gift
suggestions.
Each child lives in Niles.
Help make a child’s holiday a lot brighter by selecting
an ornament from our tree (take it home to put on
your own tree or let it remain on the library’s tree for
decoration), purchase a suggested gift(s),
and return it wrapped with the tag attached to
it to the library by Monday, December 15.
Please let a staff member at the Circulation
Desk know when you are donating a gift
and the case number from the tag you selected.
