Families for Christmas Adoption

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!!

As you all know it is getting closer to Christmas time again. Here at the Student Chapter of Council for Exceptional Children we have a Christmas tradition, we adopt two families to donate Christmas presents to. These two families were referred to us by the Foundation for Blind Children. Our goal is to be able to give two gifts to each family member, plus money to buy a grocery store certificate.

We will be having a gift wrapping party December 2 at 4:00 in SANDS 235. It would be great to see you there. If you would like to bring a gift for the family look below to see what is needed.

Family #1

Martin (9 yrs old) would like toy cars or a remote control car; wears size 4 ½ shoes, 10 pants and shirts

Jesus (7 yrs old) would like toy cars or a remote control car; wears size 3 ½ shoes, size 8 pants and shirts
