Request for Assistance
The Giving Tree only accepts requests from caseworkers or social service agencies.
If you are an individual or family in need, please contact a social service agency or caseworker to submit this form on your behalf.
Request for Assistance guidelines (effective 8/15/2025):
To better manage our resources and the growing number of requests:
The Giving Tree limits the number of requests to 6 total per caseworker per month
- Each request must only include 1 child or 1 adult
- For example: For a family of 5 – caseworker must submit 5 separate requests
- Please ensure that all necessary and up-to-date information is included in the request
- We do not consider requests for utility bills, medical bills, large appliances, transportation, housing assistance and perishables
We remain fully committed to fulfilling requests promptly.
The Giving Tree understands the significant needs within our community.
Updated Request for Assistance (effective 10/27/2025):
The Request for Assistance Program will be closed now through the end of the year.
We are focusing our resources on our annual Holiday Wish List Drive.
Requests will be unavailable until January 2026.

We wish you a happy holiday season and a great new year!
