2009 HOLIDAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
The HFSA Holiday Assistance Program (HAP) provides a full-course, holiday dinner to UT employees and their families in need. To fulfill this community service initiative, recipients are selected according to financial need and income level.
The first HAP Committee was formed in 1996 and was able to serve over 20 families with the support of a single generous donor. Since then, the Holiday Assistance Program has grown to serve over 300 families, with the help of numerous donors from all of the Vice-Presidents' offices, various student groups, HFSA members, and faculty and staff from every office and department at the University. In addition, various private businesses and a number of anonymous donors have also embraced this worthwhile cause.
In 2008, the Holiday Assistance Program helped 302 families have a better holiday! HFSA is proud to call this award winning program its signature program!
