DONATIONS ENCOURAGED: Free gift wrapping service in Bend returns thanks to Oregon nonprofit

BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Are you in need of some extra help this holiday season?

Between decorating the house, buying gifts, and planning your holiday meal, this time of year can spread some people thin. 

Here's something that might help: located at the Bend River Promenade off of 3rd Street, there's a free gift wrapping service, aimed at taking some of the to do's off your plate.

The free gift wrapping service happens every year and is put on by the nonprofit Oregon Equestrian Trails. The nonprofit accepts donations in exchange for wrapping.

You can drop gifts off between 12 p.m. and 6 p.m. Monday, December 1st through December 13th. Starting December 14th, you can drop off gifts from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. through December 23rd. 

Volunteers from Oregon Equestrian Trails will wrap your gifts (purchased from any store) and call you when they are ready for pick up.
