Thank you to the many sponsors for this program:
Rubie Shoemaker, a student at Cape Hatteras Secondary School, spearheaded the Giving Tree community service project with the Cape Hatteras DECA Chapter. The students members of DECA, a national organization that prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality and management, chose to do a project that would benefit the locals of Ocracoke Island who were affected by Hurricane Dorian.
Their goal is to provide traditional Christmas decorations to the residents of Ocracoke by collecting new and lightly-used decorations to give away.

Amigos fuera de la isla están ofreciendo decoraciones navideñas gratuitas a las familias de Ocracoke.
Los residentes de Ocracoke están invitados al evento The Giving Tree el viernes 6 de diciembre en el Centro Comunitario de Ocracoke, de 3 p.m. a 6 p.m. ¡Isleños, pasen a reemplazar las decoraciones navideñas perdidas, compartan un refrigerio y vean a sus vecinos! Muchas personas perdieron sus preciosas reliquias y decoraciones familiares durante la tormenta; Esta es una oportunidad maravillosa para comenzar nuevas tradiciones.
