Show Hilltop November 1 6, 2000 Airmans Attic needs toys, donations Hilltop Times niture, baby and household items and clothing) are provided free of charge. The Airmans Attic receives no funding and is run entirely on community donations. Beasley said in addition to filling childrens wishes during the holiday season, the Airmans Attic food pantry Laura Hunsaker, who manages Airmans Attic, said staff would also like to collect enough used toys in new or excellent used condition so kids can pick a second gift. Beasley hopes to involve both the military and civilian populations. One base worker attending Weber State University has taken on the party as a group service project and will collect toys with classmates. Beasley said each small item helps families on a budget who are struggling by Mary Galbraith staff Santa is seeking Hills help. As his elves are busy organizing and packaging thousands of toys for delivery on Christmas Eve, hes asking employees here to help fill his bag for the Airmans Attic Childrens Christmas Party set for Dec. 9 from 11:30 a.m.-l:3- 0 p.m. The Family Support Center estimates Santa will need at least 100 new toys for children ages 10 and under. Donations, which are tax deductible, should be dropped off at the Relocation Office or directly to Airmans Attic staff in Bldg. 332. Military families (E-- 5 and below) who plan to attend are asked to sign up on Santas list at the Family Support Center front desk so he can bring gifts appropriate for each child. Carole Beasley, Relocation Program manager, said the goal is to have a wrapped gift for every child. Last year some with sevabout 30 families attended the party will help fill kitchen cupboards. This time of year people have so many other expenses coming up that sometimes food is something that gets cutback on, she said. Thats the one expense that you can cut back Qn without getting in trouble with your bill to make ends meet. A lot of our s and below are eligible for food stamps and WIC, said Beasley. Theyre already buried in bills, so wed like to do something fun and nice.
