ABOUT WISH UPON A STAR

Sacramento State’s The University Union and The WELL are pleased to announce “Wish Upon A Star,” our annual gift drive. The gifts received will be delivered to Sunburst Projects, which creates safe and supportive communities for children, youth and families living with HIV/AIDS. 

Economic hardships have affected us all and the spirit of giving is more important than ever to help those less fortunate than us. To help make a wish come true:

  1. Visit the Wish Upon A Star display in the main lobby of the University Union or The WELL during building hours.
  2. Choose a wish
  3. Purchase the wish
  4. Deliver the unrapped gift with the tag attached to the University Union Info Desk by December 10

The donated gifts benefit the Sunburst Projects, who provide ongoing family support services for HIV/ AIDS impacted families with children.
