Jersey City — The Saint Peter’s College Office for Community Service and Service Learning (CSSL) has several events scheduled for the 2006 holiday season.
The College community will participate again this year in the Angel Giving Trees program.

Toys, board games, crafts or gift cards are also welcome for children throughout Jersey City.
In addition, a blood drive will be held on Wednesday, December 6 from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. in Irving Theater. During the holiday season, the Blood Center receives fewer donors. Please help to give the gift of life. Each donation can save three lives.
