During this holiday season, I am proud to say that Emerson has truly embraced the giving spirit. Staff and students are involved in many different service projects including the DCFS Holiday Gift Giving Program, which provides holiday presents for needy children and families. It is amazing to see the amount of donated presents, which were purchased for 70 children and 7 families. Over a hundred gifts were collected from Emerson and delivered to needy Chicago area children and Families.
