Saint Vincent Hospital Provides Over 100 Gifts To Families In Need

Through its annual Giving Tree program, Saint Vincent Hospital made this holiday season one to remember for over 100 families.

WORCESTER, MA - Saint Vincent Hospital’s annual Giving Tree program provided more than 100 gifts this year to local families in need.

The season of giving wouldn’t be what it is without the givers. For years, Worcester’s very own Saint Vincent Hospital has put local, needy families on their holiday gift-giving list. In collaboration with Pernet Family Health Services, its annual Giving Tree program gifted over 100 presents to the less fortunate.

In the hospital’s atrium resting on branches of their Christmas tree were ornaments with each child’s information and what they wished for Christmas. Saint Vincent employees picked an ornament of their choosing, purchased the gift and, on Dec. 17, staff from Pernet and the hospital joined together to exchange the presents.
