Adopt a Family This Holiday

School of Business employees will again be participating in an “adopt a family” project benefiting a family serviced by Domestic Abuse Intervention Services. The holidays are an especially difficult time for those who have left an abusive situation. The goal of the program is to make their holidays special and relieve holiday stress by providing both fun and necessary gifts for mothers and their children.

Those interested in participating are asked to stop by 5151 Grainger. All gifts need to be new and should remain unwrapped. Gifts requested from the family include: clothing, household items, grocery store gift certificates and educational toys. Cash donations, which will be used to purchase remaining gift items and/or gift certificates, also will be gratefully accepted. Donations should be dropped off prior to Dec. 11, when the packages will be delivered to the shelter. For more information, please contact Alisa Robertson at 262-8777 or arobertson@bus.wisc.edu.
