Friends Giving Tree 2024
Showing 1–12 of 17 results
This holiday season, Friends School families are sharing gifts that support families in meeting their kids’ needs, in partnership with The Center for Restorative Change and its , through the University of Maryland’s School of Social Work. We are excited about this hands-on opportunity to live out the Friends values of community, equality, and stewardship as we partner with families in Baltimore.
We invite you to choose one (or more!) of these books, which will be given to a family who is part of the Family Connections program.
A Community Giving Tree and donation box will be set up in the Middle School lobby and the Upper School lobby through December 16.
