Dear Community,
PCA Giving Tree
It's that time of the year again! Christmas is coming - the New Year will soon be upon us.
It is also a time to think of the less privileged members of our community and we give you the opportunity to give, in the spirit of the holiday.
This year the PCA Giving Tree will be online. In collaboration with the organizations, we have created Amazon wish lists, which enable you to purchase books, craft materials, food, blankets, feeding bowls etc. and it will be delivered directly to the organization.
We have collaborated with organizations that work with children, senior citizens, and animals.
The organizations we are supporting are
- Atmalayam Senior citizens Homes - in need of basic food and tea
Link to Amazon wish list - ARK INDIA Service Society - Orphanage for HIV+ girls in need of educational materials and basic supplies
Link to Amazon wish list - Blue Cross of India - an animal welfare in need of pet food, collars, feeding/water bowls
Link to Amazon wish list - HOPE Foundation Matriculation High School - a local school in need of books and educational materials
Link to Amazon wish list - Annai Charitable Trust (Namma Beach Namma Chennai) - in need of blankets and food
