Program to give gifts to rascals
Haskell Indian Nations University is seeking community members to adopt its little rascals for the holiday season.
There are 160 children participating this year. This is the fifth year of the Adopt-a-Haskell Rascal program, which collects gifts for the children. The gifts will be distributed at the Annual Christmas Program Dec. 6.
Once donors sign up, they may choose a child ranging from a newborn to a teenager. Each child receives up to four gifts, ranging from clothes to toys.
To adopt, contact Sherry Girty, event coordinator, at 749-8445, or by e-mail at sgirty@haskell.edu.
