UNK Archives

@unkarchives.bsky.social

UNK students regularly give back to the community. In 1996, the Rodeo Club and Mantor Hall both adopted families. The Rodeo Club delivered everything by horse and buggy, with members dressed as Santa and Mrs. Claus. #ArchiveAdventCalendar #Archives #ChristmasCharity

Newspaper article: Holiday inspires charity. The Rodeo Club decided to adopt a family in the community and make that family's Christmas special. Along with the toys, the organization also got each child an outfit, some stocking stuffers and the family a food basket including a goose and a ham. A horse and buggy, complete with Santa and Mrs. Claus, delivered the gifts to the family.

Continuation of the Holiday article. Mantor Hall also wanted to do something for Christmas for a Kearney family. Mantor Hall is having a "penny jar" to raise money to adopt a family in Kearney. All proceeds from the penny war go to buy a Kearney family gifts and a Christmas dinner.
