Community Involvement

Festival of Trees was honored to be a small part of Relay For Life of Greater South Shore’s event this past weekend. The Relay teams had a fun time with the ornament table, and we had a great time helping out with their festivities. Can’t wait to see these ornaments on their tree in December!

Unfortunately, Braintree resident Neal Almeida, Jr. and his father lost everything in a house fire this past January. The Festival of Trees Committee stepped in and was able to provide him with some relief in the form of groceries and supplies. We hope this helps him understand that the residents of Braintree are supporting him during this challenging time.

The Festival of Lights team was able to pay for the holiday lights on Town Hall and Thayer Public Library this past winter. The lights were exactly what Braintree was missing and this is definitely something we had in mind when we first started the festival. We are hoping to make this an annual tradition because we saw how it helped bring everyone some holiday cheer.
