MAGICAL CONNECTIONS IN OUR UFV COMMUNITY
The Angel Tree Program has helped over 400 children from our UFV community receive holiday wishes. Despite the challenges and obstacles that COVID-19 brought over the last two and half years, we have been able to continue and adapt to offer contactless delivery and collection.
We encourage all current UFV students with children to apply and all members of our local community to find a way to support the success of this program, whether that's being a sponsor for an angel or simply sharing information on your social media channels. Let's make this year our best one yet!
