Today, we wrapped up the final day before Christmas break with one of our most cherished traditions: Christmas Families, a tradition dating back to the 1960s.

When asked to describe Christmas Families in one word, our community shared words like generosity, uplifting, fulfilling, hope, joy, community, remarkable, awesome—and we saw all of these words come to life today.

Together, we thoughtfully selected, wrapped, and personally delivered gifts, bringing joy to 33 local families and 181 individuals this holiday season.

Thank you for making a difference, Cougars. Enjoy your Christmas break!
