Dear Colleagues,
As we approach the December Holidays, we at NUSAC thought this an appropriate time to send a reminder about the annual NUSAC Holiday Drive that is ongoing through Friday, December 11. While our charity partners no longer have families available to be assigned for gift-giving at the holidays, there are still plenty of opportunities for sharing some holiday joy:
1. We are collecting new and gently used, clean coats, hats, gloves, etc. for La Casa Norte
2. There will be a gift-wrapping party on December 19th at La Casa Norte, if you wish to have a hands-on holiday cheer experience
3. New unwrapped toys for the U.S. Marine Corp’s Toys for Tots program can be dropped off at the Evanston NU Bookstore in Norris, or the Chicago NU bookstore in Abbott Hall.
In addition, our amazing partner organizations themselves have ongoing needs, and their sites can be accessed by copying the links below and pasting the URL:
