Support Staff: Donate to RazorGifts
Staff Senate is now accepting donations for the RazorGifts Staff Holiday Giving program. This year the program will assist seven staff families from across campus. Purchase a gift or make a donation to help make the holidays brighter for a fellow staff member in need.
A gift registry has been set up online for those who wish to purchase gifts. To browse the registry or purchase a gift, go to www.giftster.com and search Staff Senate RazorGifts.
Gifts may be ordered online and shipped directly or delivered in person to Autumn Parker. All donated gifts must be received by Dec. 8 to allow for sorting and pickup in time for the holidays.
Instructions for purchasing gifts, the shipping address and additional information can be found on the Staff Senate RazorGifts website.
Those who wish to make monetary donations may purchase Amazon gift cards via the gift registry. Those who wish to donate via cash or check may contact Parker at ssgifts@uark.edu or 479-575-4622. All gift card and monetary donations will be used to purchase remaining items not selected from the virtual site before Dec. 8, 2023.

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 U of A is not a participant, and U of A resources are not used.
About Staff Senate: Created in 1976 by Board of Trustees Policy 810.1, Staff Senate and its elected senators have the responsibility of making recommendations to university leadership on any matter of staff concern, including quality of work life, the efficiency of operations and staff service to the campus community. Staff Senate advocates in the areas of compensation, working conditions, health and wellness, fringe benefits, safety, parking and other workplace issues. In addition, Staff Senate works to celebrate, recognize and give back to staff through programs such as Employees of the Quarter & Year, awards for Staff Team and Part-Time Employee of the Year, Staff Appreciation Week, the annual Staff Appreciation Picnic, Staff Senate Scholarships and RazorGifts.
