AKRON, Ohio– The University of Akron's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) has adopted two families for the holidays through Akron Children's Services.
While the families will remain anonymous, the Zips' student-athletes have been busy little elves.
Over the past month, they've collected monetary donations amongst themselves. This week the SAAC leadership went shopping to purchase more than 50 gifts and nine bicycles to donate to the families.
Akron Children's Services will deliver the gifts to the families in time for the holidays.
