The 3rd Annual Gifts that Give pop-up market will welcome shoppers Sunday, December 4 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Burlington Town Center mall, in the space formerly occupied by GAP. Fourteen organizations will offer holiday shoppers the opportunity to buy gifts that support local groups serving those in need.
Shoppers looking for gifts that reflect the true spirit of holiday giving will have much to choose from among fair-trade goods, as well as gifts in the form of donations in the names of friends and loved ones. Donation gifts could include sponsoring a night in a homeless shelter, covering the cost of warm clothes for a homeless teen, or sponsoring a meal.
