A Treasure Valley Christmas tradition that strengthens healthcare in our community.

For more than four decades, the Saint Alphonsus Festival of Trees has marked the joyful start of the holiday season across the Treasure Valley. Saint Alphonsus Festival of Trees has stood as our largest and most meaningful community fundraiser—bringing people together in the spirit of generosity, hope, and healing.

Because of the unwavering support of our community, funds raised through Festival of Trees have driven lasting impact by advancing medical services, expanding access to care, and strengthening the health of families across the communities we serve. This legacy of giving has helped us grow vital programs, invest in innovative care, and ensure compassionate, high quality healthcare is available where it’s needed most—today and for generations to come.

This year’s event will help expand access to primary and urgent care across the region Saint Alphonsus serves. Funds raised will be directed where they are needed most, strengthening our ability to compassionately care for our communities into the future. This means bringing care closer to where families live, establishing new health plazas, and more closely connecting patients to the full Saint Alphonsus Health System—so they receive the right care, at the right time, in the right place.
