For the past 12 years, MTC
has generously helped CJCC
students with children provide
Christmas gifts for their
families. This year, MTC
helped 32 students give a
merry Christmas to their children.
The gifts were presented
to students in the cafeteria’s
Eagle Room by MTC staff
and student leadership
“elves”. The group celebrated
with holiday refreshments.
The ability to give their children
something for Christmas
was truly meaningful for the
students, with many expressing
their gratitude during the
event. One student said he
wouldn’t have been able to
afford to give his new son anything
without the help and
had been sad and worried
until he heard about the Angel
Tree. The burdens of these students,
who are concentrating on
their studies while trying to
maintain their families, was
lightened for the holidays.
