Cougar Holiday Cheer Drive-Needs Your Help

Posted Date: 12/06/24 (11:40 AM)

It is time once again for the Cougar Holiday Cheer Drive. Last year's drive was a huge success, helping over 35 Cal Young families in need during the holiday season.

This year we have more families than ever who could use a helping hand. Unfortunately, as of right now, donations have been minimal. We can't make this happen with out your help!

While there are many resources around Eugene to help families with small children make the holidays bright, the number of organizations dwindles as students get older. This annual drive allows Cal Young families with the ability to help the opportunity to give and support those of our families who are facing financial difficulties this holiday season.

Cal Young is collecting donations of gift cards to provide CYMS families who could benefit from a little help this season. We welcome any and all gift cards that could brighten the holidays for our students.

Gift cards can be turned in to Miss Alexis at the front office now through Monday, December 16th.

Thank you for helping make the season bright for all Cal Young Cougars. If you would like a receipt for your tax-deductible donation, please email Alexis at krivchuk_a@4j.lane.edu or include a note with your donation.

Can't make it to the store or in to Cal Young to bring a gift card but would like to contribute? Donate via SchoolPay. *All Holiday Cheer Drive donations go toward gift cards specifically to grocery stores.

If your family is facing hardship and could use a boost of holiday cheer this season, please sign up by filling out the google form below. The form closes on Friday, December 13th. You will receive a confirmation communication for pick up the week before Winter Break.
