SUNY Oswego's SEFA (State Employees Federated Appeal) has started its 38th annual Toy Drive, with information, boxes and contacts in buildings across campus through Dec. 9 to help make spirits bright for local children in need.
The Toy Drive asks members of the campus community to consider bringing in an unwrapped toy, which will be distributed by the Oswego County Children’s Fund to kids in need around Oswego County in early December. Look for trees and wreaths around buildings with a little more information on children in the program, and what presents they want.
The need in Oswego County continues to grow, with the children's fund anticipating its highest need -- around 1,5000 kids to support -- this year.
If you would prefer to participate with a monetary donation, checks (made out to Auxiliary Services - Toy Drive) may be sent to Cathy Johnston at 702 Culkin Hall.
In addition to lobby displays, those interested can contact drive coordinators in the following buildings:
- 702 Culkin Hall
- 104 Tyler Hall
