Santa’s helpers

For the second year in a row, the residents and staff of Harrison College House brought some Christmas cheer to more than 200 foster children from all over the city at the houses annual Christmas party Dec. 11. The staff and about 100 Harrison residents and even a few Harrison alums like Miranda Knowles (C99, right) chipped in time, money and presents to help brighten the holidays for the kids and their families.
