The Mountain Group is proud to help host the annual Festival of Trees Fundraiser that benefits the local nonprofit, PEER Kindness in collaboration with The Monroe Group. Every year we invite businesses and organizations to sponsor or donate a tree or wreath to be part of our silent auction. There will be live music, refreshments, and a chance to get into the festive holiday spirit while viewing the assortment of beautifully decorated trees.

 

PEER Kindness is a nonprofit dedicated to reducing incidents of bullying by increasing awareness among school-aged youth. Their mission is to work in partnership with schools, businesses/community leaders, families, and youth to reduce bullying and to foster a PEER (Positive, Encouraging, Empathetic, and Respectful) stance.
