SAU and University Housing are once again hosting the Columbia County Angel Tree, and it is open for sponsors to select angels. The goal is to be able to make Christmas great for 108 needy families and 282 kids in Columbia County. There are a couple of ways you can help:
- Become a sponsor. No specific amount is required to be spent on each child, but $50-75 is suggested. For families, the same number of gifts is encouraged per child. Gifts do not need to be wrapped, but donors are welcome to provide a roll of wrapping paper for parents to use. You may select an Angel at https://angeltree.saumag.edu/available.
- Donate any amount of money, and SAU Housing will do the shopping. Small monetary gifts will be matched with Angels. Donations may be made at https://web.saumag.edu/angel-tree-donation.
The Angel Tree serves children in need from infancy through high school seniors by providing sponsors with information about each child’s age, gender, sizes and gift requests. It also serves as an engine to the local economy.
All gifts are due Monday, December 12 by 5:00 p.m. in Nelson Hall room 115.
For more information, call (870) 235-4047.
