Deloitte Sub for Santa Event
Have you ever wanted to go shopping with someone else’s money? And serve at the same time? Last Tuesday evening Beta Alpha Psi members were given that very opportunity as part of Deloitte’s Sub-for-Santa event.
Every year Deloitte sponsors gifts for the Marriott School of Management’s Sub-for-Santa program. Sub-for-Santa is an opportunity for people to donate or sponsor gifts for needy families during the holiday season.
Specifically, Deloitte donates the money necessary to buy their sponsored gifts for needy families, but the gifts still need to be bought before they can be distributed.
Enter BAP volunteers, who were more than happy to help buy gifts for others.
Their task: choose gifts they felt each child they were assigned would want this holiday season. From books, to winter clothing, to toys and games, fun was had by everyone as they shopped for those in need. Gifts will be distributed before the Christmas holiday.
Deloitte’s Sub-for-Santa event is one part of a larger project for needy families this season. Neither the families being benefited nor the students who served will forget the opportunity they had this holiday season to make each other’s Christmas brighter. But the most gratitude should go toward each and every Sub-for-Santa donor. This entire event is made possible by them.
