Giving Tree

Andrew Greger  drills a wooden leaf onto John Muir Elementary School’s ‘Giving Tree’ during their open house and bake sale on Wednesday, April 6, 2011. The unique hand-made 10 ft tall plywood tree, created and built by the parents and children of John Muir Elementary is erected at the entrance of the school. Each donor will have a leaf with their name placed on the branches of the tree in recognition of their support. The Annual Giving Campaign was started to help raise funds for the school’s art, science, technology and music programs. It also helps fund field trips, reading specialists and basic school supplies. The school hopes the tree will "bloom" with support this Spring.

Congratulations to John Muir for finding a fun and creative way to help support the school. I would like to participate. Your article didn't mention how and where people can send donations. Can you please post that on your website so everyone can contribute?
