EOP holiday tradition returns to campus in 2024

Once again, as the holiday season approaches, the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) at SUNY New Paltz is bringing back their successful holiday gift program to support the Agri-Business Child Development (ABCD) Center. 

EOP is inviting all members of the SUNY New Paltz community to participate! 

If you’re interested in participating, fill out this request form.  Once the form is received, Ivelisse Tuttle, EOP Associate Director, will send you the information for your assigned child.   

As a reminder, EOP requests that donated gifts not be wrapped – the program organizers will handle this to ensure equitable distribution of gifts.   

Donations may be dropped off at the EOP Office in the Haggerty Administration Building, Room 019, by Monday, Dec. 2 (or sooner if you can!). Any monetary and gift card donations will be used to supplement where necessary.  

This program is a long-running tradition organized by the New Paltz EOP community. Last year, 31 children were “adopted” and the goal this year is to provide new clothes and toys to the 40 children currently receiving educational, health and social services from ABCD.
