HOLIDAY OUTREACH
Each year we are reminded how the Villanova community is tremendously generous. The goal of our Holiday Outreach programs is to create opportunities for Villanova community members to learn more about some of our wonderful community partners and give of their time and resources to support our partners and the families they provide services to.
We extend continuous and sincere gratitudes to the many Villanova community members on and off campus who have made participating in our Holiday Outreach programs an annual tradition, and hope to inspire new folks to join us in these efforts each year!
THANKSGIVING
In late October through Thanksgiving, Villanovans donate boxes of Thanksgiving meal supplies and/or Shop Rite giftcards for families to purchase their own holiday meal items. In addition to donating meal boxes, volunteers are also needed to collect and deliver the meal boxes on the Monday of Thanksgiving week.
CHRISTMAS
In late November through the end of December, Villanovans are invited to "Adopt-a-Family" through the North Light Community Center, to donate gift cards to various community partner orgnizations, and/or to contribute to a local Parish's Amazon Wishlist Toy Drive. Villanova community members are also encouraged to volunteer their time collecting and distributing gifts in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
