Cowboys for Veterans

Christmas Bag Program

Serving others is at the heart of Oklahoma State University's land-grant mission. As part of our Cowboys for Veterans campaign, this holiday season we are encouraging the Cowboy family to give back to our veterans by donating to the Christmas Bag Program. From Nov. 12 to Dec. 13, we're joining a locally established philanthropy project to collect 800 holiday gift bags for veterans in veterans centers and hospice care across the state. Donation boxes can be found outside of the newly reopened Student Veteran Success Center and other locations across campus.
