🎄 BIG NEWS! 🎄
Our 2nd Annual Artificial Tree & Decoration Donation Drive is back — and better than ever!
This year’s drive will be hosted at Octave, Downtown Youngstown’s premiere jazz club and newly opened event lounge, as part of the Downtown Youngstown Holiday Parade & Light-Up Night — an event that drew over 15,000 people last year and is expected to be even bigger this season! 🌟
We’re also excited to be woven into the holiday festivities and the Youngstown Flea on Phelps! It’s the perfect setting to share joy, creativity, and community spirit.
We’re collecting artificial trees and new or gently used holiday décor to help local families bring festive warmth into their homes this season.
