Scottish homelessness charity asking shoppers to purchase with purpose this Christmas with their ethical Caring Christmas Trees.
Bethany Christian Trust is asking tree shoppers to help people without a home this winter by choosing a Caring Christmas Tree.
Bringing festive warmth into their home with a Caring Christmas Tree helps to bring much needed care and support to some of Scotland’s most vulnerable people. Priced from £45 and sustainably grown in Scotland, shoppers can buy a Grade One Nordman fir tree, with 100% of all proceeds going directly to Bethany’s work to support homeless and vulnerable people this winter.
The funding from this social enterprise helps to provide outreach, drop-in support, shelter, befriending, new opportunities and professional support to thousands of people during the harsh winter months.
Caring Christmas Trees has been running in Scotland for almost 20 years. Last year the project sold an incredible 3,330 trees and raised £53,231 towards its work helping people in need across Scotland.
“I’ve had a Caring Christmas tree for a number of years – I’m glad that my purchase of something that feels luxurious can help someone in need. My tree lasts through till Twelfth Night, it smells fantastic and when I go to pick it up there’s always a great sense of camaraderie amongst the team of volunteers. Everyone wins!”
Regular Caring Christmas Tree customer Fiona
“I just don’t think you can beat the combination of helping a very worthwhile charity and getting a beautiful tree. We keep coming back every year for just this reason. It’s a win win situation.”
