Birmingham, Ala.—Since early December, visitors to the Central Library lobby in downtown Birmingham have seen a special gift: a Gingerbread Christmas Tree donated to the Birmingham Public Library by Birmingham-based Protective Life Corporation.

The tree is a part of this year's Children’s of Alabama Holiday Tree Program, which allows sponsors to select a tree that is beautifully decorated by organizations and local individuals (a.k.a. Santa’s elves). The Gingerbread tree was decorated by Alabama Power Service Organization—Magic City Chapter, who designs several trees for Children’s of Alabama.

"Each year, Protective looks for a special location that the tree will bring a smile and some holiday joy to the community, and we felt the Birmingham Public Library was the perfect choice for this year’s tree," said Shayla R. Aguillard, Community Engagement Coordinator for Protective.

"This activity is one small way Protective Life Corporation invests and engages in the community," said Aguillard. "We strive to create meaningful change through various touchpoints in the communities where we live and work."

On receiving the gift, Director of Library Development Catherine Frey shared, "We were thrilled to be selected to receive the adorable gingerbread Christmas tree from the Protective Foundation. Even more special is that the tree is part of the Children's of Alabama Holiday Tree Program and decorated by Alabama Power Service Organization. The tree is proudly displayed on our first-floor lobby in our downtown central location at the BPL. Thank you to the Protective Life Corporation for the lovely Christmas tree."
