Beginning December 3, the annual Giving Tree will be up in the Newman Center Chapel and full of ornaments, each bearing a young person's first name, age and clothing size. We invite you to take an ornament from the tree, purchase the item of clothing, wrap the gift and affix the ornament to the wrapping so it can be sorted. The wrapped gifts can be brought to Newman anytime and placed under the Giving Tree. All gifts should be brought to the Chapel by Sunday, December 17th after the 7pm Mass. They will be distributed the following day to local agencies.
People are welcome to buy gifts as individuals, teams, offices, schools etc.
Thank you now for your support in this very important project. Once again, the Newman Center community banded together and achieved a common goal of gathering food for the Thanksgiving Food Drive. More than sixty families benefited from your generosity, which came in the form of financial contributions, donations of foodstuffs, as well as the time and energy required to sort and distribute the food baskets. Because of your efforts, several hundred people enjoyed a happy holiday. No answers came in for last week's question.
