Georgia United Foundation helps make the holidays brighter for children in foster care

Georgia United Credit Union Foundation is excited to announce the return of its Wish Tree program. Now in its 30th year, Wish Tree provides gifts to children in Georgia’s foster care system through generous donations made by members and community partners.

Make the holidays brighter for children now through Dec. 9, by donating requested toys or articles of clothing from the online shopping list found at gucufoundation.org/wishtree. Purchased gifts will ship directly to the branch and the local Division of Family and Children Services (DFCS) will pick up and deliver gifts to children in time for the holidays. Monetary donations to the Wish Tree Fund can also be made at branch locations. All funds collected will be used to purchase items from the shopping list in that area.

Since the program’s inception, nearly 30,000 gifts have been donated to children in need, thanks to the generosity of the community. The Foundation’s 2020 goal is to grant 1,600 wishes, reaching more than 500 children in the local communities.
