The Giving Tree
The Giving Tree is sponsored by the Women’s Center and American Association for Women in Community Colleges. Our mission is to help students and their families when financial aid and assistance from local organizations isn’t enough to get them out of crisis, to help them succeed at CLC and in life.
How It Works:
Each student enrolled in the program is given a “goddess” name for anonymity. You can choose a goddess, then stop by the Women’s Center where we’ll have a list of specific needs for each individual. Once you decide on a donation you will be given a “leaf” from the Giving Tree listing the items.
Bring your donation and “leaf” to the Women’s Center and we will deliver them directly to the student in need.
Items of greatest need:
- Grocery Gift Card
- Department Store Gift Card
- Gasoline Gift Card
- Restaurant Gift Card
- Cash
