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.
