As part of the 10th Annual Festival Of Trees at Kingsbrae Garden, you can see the Wish Tree set up in the main lobby.
Donna Linton from the Volunteer Centre of Charlotte County tells Tide News they are asking for the public's help. She says the tree is decorated in tags with Christmas wishes written on them, and people are being asked to take the wishes home and bring back a wrapped gift.
Linton says the gifts are going to a 17-year-old girl who has had a hard life and has never been able to enjoy the holiday season. She says the girl comes from a single parent family where there are limited resources and limited access to resources.
Linton says the wishes are simple things like art supplies and hygeine items and nothing costs "an arm and a leg".
