One Giving Tree is a non-profit organization under 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. We aim to provide Christmas tree kits to children and their families in our local communities, including Gilroy, San Martin, Morgan Hill, Hollister, and South San Jose.
A Christmas tree “kit” consists of a fresh, live Christmas tree, enough ornaments and hooks to decorate the tree in a reusable shopping bag, a hand-made, eco-friendly tree stand, a bio-degradable hydration bowl, and a waterless hydration system.
We provide free Christmas tree kits to families in need through our nonprofit partners. These partners include Community Solutions, Rebekah Children’s Services, Santa Clara County Office of Education, South Valley Community Church, Luigi Aprea Elementary School, Resilient Families Gilroy, Nueva Vida, YMCA Mount Madonna, GAL’s, St. Joseph’s Family Center, and Pathway Society Inc. We also offer trees to local families on request, depending on availability.
If you need a Christmas tree kit, please don’t hesitate to contact us on or before December 1st. We cannot guarantee that extra trees will be available, but we will do our best to fulfill your request. You can reach us via email at debbi@onegivingtree.org or call/text us at 408-857-4795.

Ah, great question! We fundraise through donations all year long on our website and social media. We also host a big bash we call “One Bright Night” every year to raise funds. This event is our main fundraiser. To join us, click the “Get Tickets” or click here. Additionally, we have other small fundraisers throughout the year, and they are a lot of fun.
