Could you or another U of A staff member you know use a little help providing for their family this holiday season? RazorGifts was created to assist 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 2023 RazorGifts Staff Holiday Gifting Program.

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.
