MediaOne made yule merry for 350 children
The Giving Tree was a Christmas tree decorated with paper ornaments. Each ornament had a child's Christmas wish typed on it. Throughout the month, employees took them off the tree, with the promise of buying that gift for the child.
"We felt, with the economy in such an unsettled state, that it would be most appropriate to give to those who stand in need. Again, our employees have shown an incredible amount of generosity," said Brent Low, MediaOne's CEO.
"Many employees went above and beyond expectations by purchasing gifts for four or five children," said Tara Bellorin, organizer of the Giving Tree.
