Welcome back to the season of joy, laughter, peace, and goodwill to all as we celebrate being together again at the Festival of Trees!
Rediscover the magic of Christmas at this year's Festival of Trees. This enchanted Christmas wonderland marks the start of the holiday season while letting you become part of something bigger, supporting the enhancement of healthcare, right here at home. One of the best ways you can support patients on their healthcare journey is by taking part in the wonderful fundraising opportunities offered in this sponsorship guide.
Seasonal activities and festival fun are for everyone! From Santa's Workshop and the Teddy Bear Hospital to rocking parties and exciting Galas, the Festival of Trees sparks love and hope and wonder for all ages.
