Christmas Hampers

December 1, 2016

Christmas is just around the corner and the Nursing Department has stepped up to ensure that one family has a very merry Christmas. Facilitated by members of the Public Relations committee and generously supported by countless faculty and staff, the Nursing Department collected over 15 boxes of donations to create a Student Christmas Hamper for a family of 9. All of the children will receive at least 2 presents and the mother will receive 3!  There was a huge amount of food donated as well as money that was used to buy whatever was missing and then some!

The immense generosity of our faculty and staff is very exciting and shows how special and giving our department is. Thank you to everyone who donated gifts, food, and/or money. A special thank you to the Public Relations committee (particularly Dania and Jennifer) for organizing the Christmas Hamper and putting everything together.

On behalf of the Nursing Department, we wish a very merry Christmas to this family and to everyone else celebrating the holiday.
