Port Corpus Christi Kicks off the Holiday Season with 19th Year of ‘A Tree for All’

11/30/16

Port Corpus Christi is proud to present the 19th annual ‘A Tree for All’. Once again Port Corpus Christi employees are partnering up with representatives from NuStar Energy and The Home Depot in providing 200 trees, tree stands, and ornaments to area families. The event takes place Wednesday, November 30, 2016, 5:30 PM at The Home Depot, 5401 South Padre Island Drive.

Port Corpus Christi employees are continuing the tradition of helping to spread holiday cheer throughout our community. Community organizations choose area families to receive fresh cut live trees and all the trimmings. Families are selected by Big Brothers/Big Sisters; Communities in Schools; Evans Elementary; Menger Elementary; Tuloso-Midway Primary; Mission 911; Nueces County Community Action Agency; and Robstown ISD Migrant Program.

Join us in the festivities along with Santa Claus and Pocca the Pelican as The Home Depot garden area transforms into a winter wonderland!

The most rewarding part of ‘A Tree for All’ is seeing the smiles from children and families receiving trees with all the trimmings for their holiday. Port Corpus Christi, NuStar, and Home Depot employees all share in the excitement of volunteering in preparing for and participating in this event
