Angel Tree gift requests from University families
The holiday season is approaching quickly, and UR Santa has received requests from a large number of University families who need help. This special time of year is one of giving thanks and sharing all of the blessings that we have received throughout the year. UR Santa has created an “angel tree” in Human Resource Services, located in Weinstein Hall 112, with the names and requests of all the children who need your help. If you are too busy to shop, don’t worry. UR Santa will be happy to shop for you. UR Santa also will accept monetary contributions (please make checks payable to UR Santa) to purchase gifts for the angels left on the tree and food for each of the families. Remember that each angel represents the child of one of your co-workers. Angels are available now. Won’t you please stop by and take an angel from the tree so that these children may have a joyous holiday season? For additional information, please call ext. 8538. Remember to bring your UNWRAPPED gift to Human Resource Services by Dec. 10.
