During the holiday season, Community Services of Venango County, Inc., in conjunction with the Cranberry Mall, operates the annual Spirit of Giving campaign. Dedicated volunteers monitor the Giving Tree, offer shopping bags for Mall customers, and wrap their purchased Christmas gifts.

This year, community members also have the opportunity to support the Spirit of Giving without shopping in person. Community Services has a Giving Tree through Amazon.  Follow the link a.co/5SXbhFi to find an Amazon wish list full of items needed for the Spirit of Giving.

If you’d prefer to get a tag in-person, they will still have a physical Giving Tree and gift wrapping at the Cranberry Mall.

All of the funds and items donated to the Spirit of Giving campaign benefit more than 800 local children in need through Community Services. This year’s distribution of items to families is on Monday, December 21, and is drive-up only.
