Mercy College Living Its Values

Monday, January 9th, 2012

The generosity of Mercy College employees and students knows no bounds. The ornaments on this year’s GIVING TREE (with the person’s name and gift idea) were taken in three days – a record! Those who took ornaments bought extra gifts, and everyone turned their gift donations in before the deadline!

The result is that we had more gifts than the family even requested. We were able to stuff gift items into five large boxes for each of the seven family members. A single mom and her six children will have a wonderful Christmas because of the generosity of Mercy College faculty, staff, and students.

The Academic Council, which sponsors the GIVING TREE, wishes to thank all who participated in the project, including those who donated wrapping paper and ribbon. The Mercy College Family truly lives the Mercy values!
