In the spirit of giving, the Office of Advancement at The University of Southern Mississippi recently collected more than 60 toys for the Salvation Army's annual Angel Tree project, which provides Christmas gifts for disadvantaged children in the Hattiesburg area.
“We are in the business of asking people to give to the greater good of Southern Miss,” said Dr. David Wolf, Southern Miss vice president for Advancement. “In this way, we’re giving to the greater good of the Pine Belt this holiday season.”
