Thank you for supporting the 2021 Festival of Trees! A portion of the proceeds from this event are donated to the Peace Health Radiation Oncology Cancer Patient Treatment Fund to provide money for travel expenses, drug costs, wigs, and many other needs. The remaining proceeds benefit other local related charities focusing on the needs of women and children. We ask businesses and individuals to sponsor trees, wreaths, and specialty items. We then find designers to decorate the trees and wreaths and hold an invitation-only auction.
