Eastern's PTK Toys for Tots Christmas Campaign 2022

It is time once again to embark on a great community service for our
college. When we return from the Thanksgiving Break we will officially kick
off this event.

*	A target age for children will be ages 10 and younger.  
*	This is a completely volunteer community service event that benefits
Eastern student's and their families.

How do you participate?: Bring a new at least ($5) unwrapped gift to class
and give to your professor,  or to a campus director's office at Idabel,
McAlester.  If you would like to pool your money together with a friend, you
can do that too and purchase together. Many faculty will be offering bonus
points for this community service project.  Some of you may have an
opportunity during the break for some shopping deals going on with black
Friday. (If you can't afford a gift but would like to volunteer your time we
can use help with wrapping the gifts) 

Second option for participation:  That is a new addition this year: Fleece
for tie blankets.   If you would rather donate fleece for a tie blanket we
will take those too and put to good use. We are going to donate those
blankets to a homeless shelter through Wilburton First Baptist that they are
doing a ministry with.  

When does this need to be completed? : We will need these no later than
December 2nd   (last day of classes). We will be doing the annual Christmas
wrapping party on Monday December 5th beginning at noon with food and
festive music in Mitchell 116 and Mitchell 120.  We will have toys, wrapped,
bundled and ready for distribution beginning Tuesday morning.

 

I need your help in identifying Eastern student families in need: If you
know of a fellow student who may have small children and can identify them
as someone who may need a helping hand during this time, please email me
their name and children information with gender and ages of children.

 

You can also self-identify yourself to me as a student to be placed on our
list. Please just email your name and information. We have never faltered in
supplying all Eastern families with gifts and I have great expectations that
will be the same this time as well.


We are only targeting children ages 10 and younger. We will be offering
gender and age appropriate toys.  We only need the ages and gender of
children for a family if you have someone you would like to add to the list.

 

The Christmas wrapping party is open to anyone who would like to volunteer
some of your time to wrap gifts. It will be on Monday, Dec 5th at noon in
Mitchell 116.  There will be food, drinks and desserts for any who wish to
come and help with the Wrapping party!
