WJU students are admitted free. WJU Helping Kids at Christmas Demetra Weaver, a senior at WJU, is coordinating a drive for new or nearly new clothing and toys for needy children in Ohio and Belmont counties. Weaver is being assisted in the drive by Cheryl Sickle, a cashier in the business office, and her Girl Scout troop. Administration, faculty, staff and students are being asked to check their closets for clothing and toys that are in great shape and can be passed on to someone who needs them. Teens ages 13 to 17 are especially in need of gifts.
Items can be either new or used.
Please be sure that items are clean and in excellent condition. Clothing should be suitable for winter wear and in excellent condition. It should be folded or hung on a hanger. Items will be collected Nov. 20 through Dec. 2. We encourage offices to dine together in celebration of the start of the holiday season.
