Hospital sponsors Angel Tree
For the 22nd year, St. Mary’s Hospital and Clinics will sponsor the Christmas “Angel Tree” which helps match generous donors with those in need of gifts for children and food for families.  
Individuals in need are encouraged to call Brenda Kaschmitter, project coordinator at 208-962-3251.  She will confidentially record the child’s name, age, gender, clothing sizes and gift requests.  All requests must be made by December 8th. 
On November 21st, tags bearing only a number to protect each child’s privacy and a list of the child’s wishes will be hung on the Angel Tree outside of the hospital Chapel.  Individuals interested in fulfilling a wish are asked to take a tag, shop for the child’s gift choices and return the unwrapped gift with the tag to Brenda at St. Mary’s Hospital by December 18th.   All requested gifts and food baskets will be distributed on Friday, December 21st from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. in the basement of the St. Mary’s Clinic.  
In conjunction with the Cottonwood Food Bank, SMH volunteers prepare food boxes for “Angel Tree” families as well as elderly residents in the community.  Requests for food boxes should also be directed to Brenda Kaschmitter at 208-962-3251.
“The holidays can be difficult when there are financial strains and we want to do our part in easing those burdens through the “Angel Tree,” said Kaschmitter.  “Our community has always been very generous and we appreciate the opportunity to facilitate happier holidays for our neighbors.”  Those willing to help can purchase gifts or send a financial contribution to “Angel Tree Project,” Brenda Kaschmitter c/o St. Mary’s Hospital, PO Box 137, Cottonwood, ID 83522.
