Some less fortunate families will have a merry Christmas this year.


Judge Wally Scott helped buy and donate 15 Christmas trees for needy families in Reading.


The trees arrived outside his office on North Ninth Street on Monday afternoon.


Organizers said they understand times are tough, and they're happy to be able to help.


"Unfortunate that people don't have a tree this year because they can't afford it," said Julio Montanez. "The economy is kind of hard and people that work they've got to pay bills and they've got other stuff to do."


The event honors the memory of Domingo Tejada, who passed away a few years ago.
