Making Spirits Bright: FAU Owls Bring Holiday Joy with Toy Drive

Sarah Meyer Bertheau and the FAU Owls Chapter of STUDENTS Speak Up for Kids helped spread holiday cheer by organizing a Holiday Toy Drive, ensuring that every child attending Winterfest received a special gift.

 Through the generosity of donors and the dedication of student volunteers, the toy drive made a meaningful impact, bringing smiles to children and making the holiday season a little more magical. By distributing these gifts at Winterfest, the FAU Owls helped create a joyful and inclusive holiday experience for all attendees.

Why This Matters

The holidays are a time of giving, connection, and joy. By collecting and distributing toys, the FAU Owls ensured that every child at Winterfest felt valued and celebrated. Small gestures like this help foster a sense of belonging and holiday magic, making a lasting impact on children and families.
