MIDDLEBORO — The annual Giving Tree Program sponsored by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul is underway.

Parishioners are invited to participate by choosing a tag or two from those attached to the garland hanging along the walls in each Mass location.Tags will be available thru Nov.26.

Donors are asked to make sure that the gift tag is securely attached to the gift bag of box, if there are multiple tags, make sure that each gift is bagged separately.

Extra gifts  gifts must go in the bag with the gift requested on the tag in order to limit confusion on our end when processing gifts and gift receipts for clothing items are greatly appreciated.

The gift return deadline is Sunday, Dec. 3.

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul van will be at each church before every Saturday and Sunday Mass beginning on Nov. 25  thru
Dec. 3.

Gifts may be dropped off at the Sacred Heart Food Pantry, 53 Oak Street, Middleboro during pantry hours. Please do not leave gifts when the pantry is closed.

There are always special circumstances and late registrants who hope that their children might still be included in the program. Donations to help purchase the gifts for these children may be sent to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, P.O. Box 1381, Middleboro. Please note Giving Tree in the memo line.
