‘Christmas Tree Lane’ will support business, raise funds for abuse victims
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Live Violence Free is encouraging local businesses to get into the holiday spirit and host a Christmas tree at their stores and help raise funds for child abuse and domestic violence victims in the community.
The “Christmas Tree Lane” locations will be promoted through LVF social media and its website with a map provided to view each tree from Nov. 26 through Dec. 17.
Everyone is welcome to make a donation to Live Violence Free and get a chance to win one of the decorated trees.
