The Headquarters’ “The Giving Tree” Lighting
November 24, 2017
The Headquarters at Seaport presents its annual Tree Lighting Ceremony to benefit USO San Diego. Since 1941, the USO has stood by our troops, from deployment to rehabilitation and reintegration. The organization heavily relies on donations and is especially in need of toy donations during the holiday season. “The Giving Tree” lighting will take place at 6:30pm in The Headquarters’ open-air courtyard alongside USO San Diego officials and local military families. Guests are encouraged to bring toy donations that will benefit more than 1,000 active-duty military families served through USO San Diego. Once the 35-foot tree is lit, the internationally acclaimed All American Boys Chorus will perform holiday favorites and Santa will be available for complimentary photos with children. Free hot chocolate and candy canes will also be available. Additionally, visitors can get a jumpstart on holiday shopping with unique gifts from local boutiques such as United Streets of Art, Urban Beach House, Geppetto’s Toys, and Dallmann Fine Chocolates. Through December 18, the community is invited to drop off gifts for children up to 18 years of age and monetary donations for the USO at the Giving Tree or Geppetto’s Toys. 619.235.4014, theheadquarters.com/events-calendar/uso-giving-tree-lighting
