Poughkeepsie, NY- Members of the Marist Student Athlete Advisory Committee pitched in to purchase a holiday present from the Marist Giving Tree for a child in need this year. Trees around campus are decorated with ornaments with various gift requests from children of disadvantaged families in the community. The presents were blessed in the Marist Chapel on December 13. Athletes from various teams are making a 13 year-old very happy fulfilling his wish of a skateboard and helmet this holiday season!
