COSAM Supports Toys for Tots

 

COSAM students, faculty and staff collected toys to donate to the Lee County Toys for Tots program. The College began working with the program as a way to brighten the holiday season for area children.

"In place of the traditional gift exchange, the College has asked the faculty, staff and students to place a toy under our Toys for Tots tree that is located in the main College lobby. More recently our COSAM Leaders student group have worked to assure that this way of giving reaches further out than might have otherwise been possible," remarked COSAM Dean Stewart Schneller.

Close to 350 toys flowed from underneath the COSAM Christmas tree. The toys were then collected and bagged by COSAM staff to be picked up and distributed in time for Christmas.

"It has been so rewarding to watch the generosity of the COSAM people grow yearly to benefit and bless children of our area," Schneller said.
