The NatWest Group Trees of Kindness how–to…

Do:

  • Choose a gift from our wishlist on the right
  • Donate your gift in a gift bag – please don’t seal the bag
  • Include a hand-written message of kindness for the recipient
  • Add a note to the gift detailing the type of gift and the intended recipient (man / woman / children / boy / girl / either) so that we can arrange distribution to the right beneficiaries

Don’t

  • Wrap gifts
  • Give second-hand donations
  • Give alcohol
  • Provide home-baking or donate food items

For security reasons, we need to be able to see exactly what your donated gift is. It also helps us match it up with the right recipient.

We do not have the capacity to wash, sort, and distribute second-hand items. Please do not donate second-hand items to the Trees of Kindness
