Santa’s Wish List
Hundreds of children of MATC students have been signed up to receive gifts for the holidays through the Santa’s Wish List program. Because our students are in school and working on creating a new future for themselves and their families, they may not afford to provide holiday gifts for their children. We believe it is important to support our students in their efforts to improve their lives and still meet their family needs.
Sign Up Information
Students can sign up their children for the Wish List this year November 1st through November 21st.
Note: In no way do we wish to imply that these children will receive everything that they’ve asked for, indeed they will not, but it does provide donors with choices to select from so that each child will receive at least one gift from their own wish list.
Stop by Student Life room 140 At Truax, or D237 At Downtown campus to pick up a sign up form. If you are a student attending Fort Arkinson, Reedsburg, Portage, or Watertown. Pick up a sign up form at the front desk at your campus.
Donate to the Wish List program
“I am going to school, working a part-time job, and have a child to provide for over the holidays…this program really was a blessing, I can’t wait to see the smile on my children’s faces” ~Erica

There are different ways you can donate to the Santa’s Wish List program and help make the holidays brighter for our students and their children:
- Pick one or more ornaments from the giving tree, which is located outside of Student Life at Truax or in the cafeteria at the Downtown campus, between November 19 – December 12 and purchase a gift(s) for a child. The ornaments include the name of a child and their wish list.
- Make a tax-deductible monetary donation to the Santa’s Wish List program, checks should be made payable to the MATC Foundation, with Santa’s Wish List in the memo line of the check. Stop by Student Life to make a donation.
- Drop off any unwrapped general gifts that are appropriate for children up to 12 years of age at Student Life.
