Sponsor a Foster Care Child or Teen for Christmas
November 14, 2014
Sponsor a Foster Care Child or Teen for Christmas through WISH UPON A STAR.
Wish Upon a Star benefits more than 1,000 local children who have experienced abuse
or neglect, to make their holidays a little more merry. Many of them cannot be home
for the holidays because home is not safe.
Each year, Santa Fe College students, faculty and staff help make their wishes come
true! Groups, clubs, classes, departments and individuals select stars listing each
childâ?Ts name, age and three wishes, making a commitment of $50 per child.
Pick up a star at the Building S front desk. Sponsors agree to wrap, package together,
affix stars and return gifts to the Building S lobby on Monday, Dec. 1.
A group photo of all gifts collected and sponsors will be taken at Noon on Tuesday,
Dec. 2 in the Building S breezeway, then gifts will be loaded into Student Life vans
for delivery to the Partnership for Strong Families community collection at Northwest
Baptist Church.
Departments, clubs, classes or groups who would like a Wish Upon a Star representative
to make a presentation to answer questions and bring stars for review and sponsorship
are invited to contact Kimberly Buchholz in the Office of Civic Engagement or Brittany
Betancourt, Service Corps Project Leader, to schedule an appointment.
