Could you or another University of Arkansas staff member you know use a little help providing for their family this holiday season?  RazorGifts was created to assist 100 percent-appointed staff of the Fayetteville campus and their dependent children with their needs during the holidays.

The Staff Senate is pleased to announce that applications are now available for the 2018 RazorGifts Staff Holiday Gifting Program.

Eligibility

Only 100 percent-appointed U of A staff and immediate family members who live in the same house as the staff member will be included.  Family members who do not share a home with the staff member are ineligible for the program. Priority is given to children under the age of 18 who meet eligibility requirements. Self-nominations and nominations by another University of Arkansas faculty or staff member will be accepted.

Applications are available on the Staff Senate RazorGifts website.

Applications must be submitted in one of the following ways no later than 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7. 

For questions contact Autumn Parker or EmmaLe Davis, RazorGifts co-chairs at ssgifts@uark.edu.

Those who wish to purchase gifts or make donations to the program can find more information at Staff Senate RazorGifts website. Together, we can all play a role in making the holidays a great time for individuals in need within our community.

RazorGifts is an employee-to-employee gifting program. Gifts made under the Staff Holiday Gift Program are made by members of the university community to dependent children of university employees and are not gifts to the university. The University of Arkansas is not a participant, and University of Arkansas resources are not used.
