will benefit the 55th Annual " Singing Christmas Tree."A highlight of

this year's "The Singing Christmas Tree – All You Want for Christmas!."
The abstract Christmas Tree pin – created by Donald Haack Diamonds'
master craftsman Russell McKenzie – will cost $20 and a percentage of
the proceeds will go to supporting David Tang's "Singing Christmas
Tree" and Carolina Voices. The exclusive charm can be purchased
atDonald Haack Diamonds, during the Holiday Open House on Dec. 3 and
at the 55th Annual "Singing Christmas Tree" on Dec. 12 and 13.
"For many years we supported the 'Magic of Christmas' because it was
about children and tradition and celebrated the meaning of Christmas –
away from the commercialization of the season. This year, we are
looking forward to supporting the new 'Singing Christmas Tree' under
the amazingly talented direction of David Tang," said Julie Haack,
president of Donald Haack Diamonds & Fine Gems. "We are also excited
to create a truly unique charm that celebrates the holidays while
benefiting such a wonderful cause and tradition in our community."
