The Hilton Boston/Woburn is looking for help to assist children and families who are suffering from the current economic crunch. In coordination with the Council for Social Concern, on Monday, Dec. 1, the Hilton will raise a Holiday Wish Tree in the lobby of the hotel, located at 2 Forbes Road in Woburn. Adorning the 10-foot tree will be white and gold Holiday Wish Angels. The white Angels will have listed the first name of a family member who resides in Woburn and the surrounding communities, and the age of the person. An age-appropriate wish could be fulfilled with toys, clothing, electronic items, home goods and even school supplies. The Hilton is asking their patrons and the residents of Woburn to stop by the hotel at their convenience to select an Angel and fulfill a family’s Christmas Wish. The purchased gifts are to be brought back to the Hilton, unwrapped, with the original Wish Angel attached.  read more »
