Holiday Gifts for Henley & WAHS Kids

Tax deductible
During the continuing COVID pandemic, many Albemarle County families are struggling to fund essentials. Please make a gift to ensure that kids receive gifts of much-needed clothing and shoes during this holiday season!

The Giving Tree will support approximately 110 children, including Henley & WAHS students plus siblings. The counselors at Henley Middle School and Western Albemarle High School  identified these families, who remain anonymous to Giving Tree organizers, as those most in need of community support.  Due to health & safety concerns, we are opting to solicit funds to purchase gift cards, allowing families to do their own shopping. Our campaign will run from mid-November until Weds, December 10. 

How can I contribute?
Click "Donate" to make your gift online today!  Or, you may donate by cash or check to "Henley PaTSO".  Due to on-going mail delays, please consider dropping off your check at Henley Middle School 5880 Rockfish Gap Turnpike, Crozet, VA 22932.  If you'd like to send via mail, please notify us that the check has been sent.

How much should I donate?
Any amount helps! To sponsor a single child, donate $100. To sponsor an average-sized family, donate $250. 

Do I need to "tip"?
When you donate via GoFundMe, you will be prompted to add an optional tip.  This tip is truly optional, with funds going to the technology platform provider (who we do appreciate!) and not to families or PaTSO.
