This annual program partners with Parkridge Community Center to ensure local Ypsilanti youth receive a gift this upcoming holiday season.
Our goal is to provide 120 Ypsilanti children with a gift (suggested $20-$40 each). Participants may participate by making a monetary donation or through dropping off a new unwrapped gift at the donation bins located in the Atrium of EMU's Department of Public Safety (1200 Oakwood Street, Ypsilanti, MI 48197).
All monetary donations to purchase gifts are tax deductible and you will receive a receipt following your gift. Monetary donations will be used to purchase gifts to donate to the Parkridge Community Center.
Participants who prefer to drop off a new unwrapped gift can find more information and sign up for a specific age range on DCI's Programs Website.
All donations must be made by December 3rd, 2021 to ensure timely delivery of gifts.
