Become a Tree Donor for the 2025 Festival of Trees
Share Your Holiday Spirit. Support Great Futures.
By donating a decorated tree to the Springfield Boys & Girls Club’s 25th Annual Festival of Trees, you’re doing more than adding holiday magic to the season—you’re investing in local youth and helping build a brighter future for generations to come.
Each tree donation directly supports the Club’s life-changing programs and services that empower young people—especially those who need us most—to grow into caring, responsible, and successful adults.
Showcase Your Creativity to Thousands
Whether you’re an individual, family, business, or organization, decorating a tree is a festive way to express your creativity while supporting a meaningful cause. Your tree will be proudly displayed at the MassMutual Center in downtown Springfield, where more than 18,000 visitors will experience the joy, beauty, and wonder of the Festival throughout the holiday season.
