Southern Arkansas University is hosting the Columbia County Angel Tree and is looking for sponsors to make donations to the over 250 children and 93 families in need.
Donations to the Angel Tree provide gifts to children of all ages through information about each child's age, gender, size and gift requests. Each year, sponsors donate more than $40,000 in clothing, toys and electronics.
Donors can help in the following ways:
Become a sponsor. No specific amount is required to be spent on each child, but $50 is suggested. If sponsoring a family, it is suggested that $50 be spent per child. Gifts are not to be wrapped, but donations of wrapping paper are welcome.
Sponsors who donate money will have the shopping done for them.
Volunteer by contacting SAU at 870-235-4047.
The Angel Tree is located at SAU Reynolds Room 218 and gifts are due by 5 p.m. on Dec. 14.
