Help VaPA collect toys for the Toys for Tots campaign


The Visual and Performing Arts Department is again collecting toys for the Toys for Tots campaign in memory of Pat Barnes’ little granddaughter Claire, who lost her life battling a sudden illness last November.

The heartwarming response from this tragedy was so overwhelming that VaPA is continuing it again this year.

Please bring your new unwrapped toys to the VaPA office in Building 6, Room 209 until December 15 between the hours of 8:45am-4:45pm.

In memory of Claire who always gave to less fortunate children, our hope is that the children who receive these gifts will have a better holiday. Thank you in advance for your generous contributions.
