POTSDAM — The Potsdam Holiday Fund is in need of gifts for older children, ages 13-17.

As in many years, the fund is having a generous response to its Giving Trees set up at 40 area businesses, but gifts are coming up short for teens.

Some possible gift ideas include, shaving kits, body wash, candles, lotions, blankets, wireless Bluetooth earbuds/headphones, wireless Bluetooth speakers, other technology and electronics, board games for ages 13+, sporting goods (hockey, fishing, basketball, soccer, golf, etc.), workout items (yoga balls/mat, tennis balls/racket, etc.), or gift cards.

The Giving Trees are decorated with red and white diamond-shaped tags labeled with boy or girl, and the age of a child in need. Individuals who would like to help are asked to help “undecorate” the tree by taking a tag, purchasing a gift for the child, and returning it unwrapped with the tag to a Giving Tree before December 14.
