    UNC Holiday Toy Drive - Ongoing
    • Colorado School of Public Health at the University of Northern Colorado campus hosts a request-driven toy drive during the holiday season, developed and implemented by CSPH at UNC and promoted to all members of the campus community. This initiative encourages anyone who is a student, staff, or faculty member at UNC who may be responsible for providing a holiday gift to a child to apply. This resource provides financial relief during the holidays, fosters a sense of community support and connection, and offers students an opportunity to become leaders.
    • Want to lend a hand in supporting your community families, or want some community support yourself? Here is the link to request gifts or sign up to volunteer. https://forms.office.com/r/4iyhLy37jW
