USM Residential Life and ARAMARK Dining Services Support Toys for Tots

November 19, 2007

ARAMARK Dining Services and USM’s Department of Residential Life are again supporting the United States Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots this holiday season.  In order to bring the joy of the holidays to children in need, Dining Services and Residential Life will provide hundreds of toys purchased with donations from USM students, faculty and staff.

This year the process is a bit different.  Rather than purchasing toys, individuals are asked to donate one dollar or more toward the cause. Toys will be purchased once all the money has been collected.  All faculty, staff, and students are encouraged to participate.  Any person donating $25 or more will receive dinner for two at the Holiday Dinner and toy presentation on Thursday, December 13 in the Brooks Student Center Dining Hall in Gorham.  At Lewiston-Auburn College, every person donating $1 or a toy will receive a chance to win a whole turkey in the December 13 raffle.

Toys will be presented to members of the United States Marine Corps Reserve at the Brooks Student Center, Gorham during the annual Festive Holiday Meal on December 13.
