Dear Soule Families,

Every year the Giving Tree seems to grow.  Every year I worry about how we will possibly help so many Soule families; and every year I am absolutely amazed at the generosity of this community.  This year’s Giving Tree had the wishes of 21 families (a total of 46 children) and all the gift tags were taken faster than I can remember them ever being taken in the past. In addition, the Salem High School Key Club and Lions Club graciously adopted two of our families as well.

The success of the Giving Tree would not be possible without you all.  I am in awe of the kindness you have all shown to our students and families and the example you have been to your own children about the true meaning of this season.

Many wishes to you all for a wonderful holiday and a New Year filled with happiness.

Thank you again for your ongoing support.

With extreme gratitude,

Amy Patenaude
