Nothing captures the spirit of Christmas better than singing carols, sipping on hot chocolate and nibbling on some red and green sprinkled cookies while adorning a beautifully decorated tree. The Embassy Suites Atlanta Galleria is 
celebrating their second annual Cobb Galleria Festival of Trees event which will showcase 30 Christmas trees that have been decorated in a contest for charities.
The second annual Cobb Galleria Festival of Trees is an excellent opportunity for the Atlanta community to make a difference in the lives of others by embodying the meaning of Christmas through fund raising for many worthy local charitable organizations. Admirers will be able to “vote” for their favorite tree or charity by donating money in envelopes designated at each tree. The tree with the highest monetary donation will receive an additional donation from the hotel so every vote matters!
The trees have been up since November 18th and will stay up until after the New Year, giving the community plenty of time to thoroughly enjoy the beautiful decorations and make a contribution.
The culmination of the festival will be the hotel’s Anniversary Gala Reception on Thursday, December 15th from 5:30-8:00. The event will feature food, beverage and live local entertainment capped off with Santa Claus handing each organization their donations.
Last year the event was extremely successful and raised a total of $13,912.21 for all of the participating charities combined and we are looking forward to surpassing that amount this year!
The Embassy Suites Atlanta Galleria will be serving free hot chocolate in the evening for anyone who wants to come out with family or friends to enjoy the 30 beautiful trees.
