The Family Giving Tree is a charitable organization that strives to alleviate the consequences of poverty in the California Bay Area.
They created the Family Giving Tree with the hope of providing holiday gifts to 300 children in East Palo Alto.
The organization partners with local social service agencies, schools, and corporations to fulfill the "wishes" of underprivileged children that would otherwise go without.
The social service agencies and teachers from local schools pick up the gifts and backpacks to distribute throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
Family Giving Tree is one of very few non-profits in the San Francisco Bay Area to receive Charity Navigator's 4-star rating.
