GTGB is WashU's Annual Holiday Gift Drive. GTGB supports an organization called 100 Neediest Cases (a joint project of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and the United Way), which runs a holiday gift-drive to benefit the poorest families in St. Louis. 100 Neediest Cases identifies over 10,000 cases of area residents struggling to overcome poverty around the holiday season. GTGB brings this city-wide effort to help these St. Louis families onto Washington University's campus. GTGB organizes student, faculty, and staff groups that sponsor the families by buying gifts, clothing, household appliances, and/or other specially requested items for their adopted families. The gift drive culminates every year with two wrapping parties in which volunteers wrap all the donated gifts for the families. | Special Events
