Saint Mary’s University Gifts for Winona application deadline is Nov. 13

WINONA, Minn. — The last day to apply for the Saint Mary’s University Gifts for Winona program is Friday, Nov. 13. People who need help obtaining holiday gifts for the children and seniors in their families should go to one of the human service agencies that they work with (Catholic Charities, Habitat for Humanity, Project FINE, Semcac, Winona County Department of Human Services, Winona Senior Advocacy Program, Winona Volunteer Services, Winona Red Cross or Women’s Resource Center) to get a form.

Through the generosity of the Winona-area community, this annual gift-giving program helped more than 1,800 people have a much happier holiday season last year.

Other community partners that join SMU to help make this program possible are the Winona Post, Winona Radio and Winona Volunteer Services.
