Message:

Once again, it?s that time of year when we, as a community, participate in our annual United Way/Community Solutions Fund campaign. This year, in addition to monetary contributions, there will be several opportunities to participate with other types of gifts. If you aren?t able to contribute financially, I encourage you to participate in one (or more!) of these other wonderful opportunities.

Week #1: (November 14th through November 18th)
Book Drive
Clean off those book shelves and bring all those books you won?t read again to the information desk in Christensen Center. Books collected will be donated to various charities that support children, battered women?s shelters, and state prison programs.

Weeks #2- #3: (November 21st through December 2nd)
Mitten, Hat and Scarf Tree
Bring in new and gently used winter accessories and decorate the tree by the information desk in Christen Center. All collected items will be donated to area clothes closets and homeless shelters.

Week #4: (December 5th through December 9th)
Toy Drive
Bring new, unwrapped toys and age appropriate gifts for teens to the information desk in Christensen Center. All collected items will be donated to Toys for Tots.

Throughout the campaign
Project Angel Tree
If your department would be interested in combining your efforts and ?adopting? children as part of the Project Angel Tree program, contact Michele Kidwell. Project Angel Tree is an organization that collects and distributes gifts to children of incarcerated inmates in area prisons.

Financial Contributions
You can complete your enrollment form for the Untied Way and/or the Community Solutions Fund at anytime and drop in the campus mail (CB 143, attention Michele Kidwell) or drop it by Christensen Center 100C.
