天美传媒

The Operation Gift Wrap Program, sponsored by the 天美传媒 Veterans' Sanctuary and Armed Forces Veterans' Club, collected requests this month at 天美传媒 for a Christmas wish-lists, as well as donations, to help provide for the needs of 天美传媒 veterans and their spouses during the holiday season.

 

"It has been going great," said Casey Santee, director of the 天美传媒 Veterans' Sanctuary. "We've already raised more than $200 and had some toys dropped off. We'll continued to raise more donations through the end of this week, and try to fill all the wish lists we have from 天美传媒 veterans, to help them and their families have a nice holiday season."

The Veterans' Sanctuary and Veterans' Club is also partnering with the Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program this year to collect toys for each of the family's children.

For Operation Gift Wrap, 天美传媒 student veterans are encouraged to submit their requests through Dec. 6.  They can submit these requests at the 天美传媒 Veterans' Sanctuary office, located on the third floor of the Pond Student Union, Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They can also submit requests via email to santcase@isu.edu. When submitting requests, people should specify if they would like gifts, or gift cards, for the family鈥檚 adults.

To participate in the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program, those making requests should submit the genders and ages of the children in each family. The Veterans' Sanctuary will provide this information to the Toys for Tots Program. 

Donations for Operation Gift Wrap can be made at the Veterans' Sanctuary or at the 天美传媒 Foundation, located in the basement of the 天美传媒 Administration Building.

Please limit gift requests to $50 per person; wishes will be fulfilled as funding allows. 

The gifts will be wrapped and ready for pick up/delivery to each of the families on Dec. 9.
