Division of Lifelong Learning collecting scarves, hats for Special Olympics Maine
The Division of Lifelong Learning at the University of Maine is collecting new handmade scarves and hats for Special Olympics Maine.
A drop-off box is located in the first-floor hallway of Chadbourne Hall. Donations will be accepted through Jan. 4.
The scarves and hats will be donated to athletes who are participating in the 2019 Special Olympics Maine State Winter Games.
Special Olympics Maine hopes to receive 500 scarves, as well as hats, so every athlete can stay warm during the 2019 games. Donations in the colors of the 2019 games — purple, green and blue — are encouraged but not required. For more information, call 929.6237 or 879.0489.
