THOMASVILLE, GA (WALB) -

A Thomasville children's advocacy center wants all children to have special Christmases.

The Treehouse Children's Advocacy Center launched The Giving Tree Project.

Children who are victims of physical or sexual abuse or have witnessed a violent crime will receive clothes, toys, and other gifts this holiday season.

"One of our goals of the Treehouse is to make sure that we show our support to our victims and their families throughout the year and The Giving Tree is one of the ways we can do that," said Treehouse Director Jackla Dean.

A child's size, wish list and other information may be obtained by contacting Jackla Dean, Treehouse director and forensic interviewer, at 977-1639 or at jackla.treehouse@gmail.com.
