Belles of Joy: A Neighborhood Tree of Love

|
|
|
|
|
|
happening until December 20th!
jajaBelle’s is excited to be able to share âBelles of Joy: A Neighborhood Tree of Love.â Initially, jajaBelle’s wanted to fill their Main Street window with toys this holiday season. However, as they started talking to different organizations, they found toys werenât the primary need. âBelles of Joyâ is a neighborhood angel tree, mixing both generic and specific wants and needs within our community. Participating organizations include The Nashua Childrenâs Home, Margueriteâs Place, The Front Door Agency, PAL, and Girlâs Inc. You are invited you to take a tag, buy a gift (or donate money so jajaBelle’s can buy the gifts!), and fill the window with neighborhood love this holiday season!
