Adopt-A-Don Program
Adopt-A-Don Program
The Adopt-A-Don Holiday Project is a charitable project that assists selected students and their families during the holiday season. We are asking our faculty, staff, campus departments, and/or student organizations to “adopt” our students and their families for the 2024 holiday season. This project will assist with toys, clothing, and household needs. We ask that gifts and items be unopened, bagged, and/or wrapped upon delivery. Gift Cards are accepted. Faculty, staff, campus departments, and/or student organizations can register to adopt a Don as early as August 26th - September 27th, 2024 via the link below. The maximum amount of $250 is allowed per family. If you have questions, please email [email protected].
