Adopt-A-Family Project
THANK YOU TO ALL OUR SUPPORTERS IN 2022!
You can leave feedback about the program HERE
We will be back in September of 2023!
As a community we have an opportunity to ease the struggles of families in our community and make the holidays brighter for our neighbors. Each year the Volunteer Center partners with 26 fellow non-profits to meet the needs of 400+ families struggling to make ends meet. Our non-profit partners provide us with a short bio about each family and a list of the items that each family member requests. Adopt a Family Project volunteers then set to work connecting these families with donors who shop for them for the holidays. Requests include basic necessities like sheets, towels, or shoes along with special gift requests for the children.
All of these families are struggling with special circumstances such as: homelessness, parents in recovery, parents or children with disabilities, victims of violent crime, families facing serious health challenges or other hardships.

ADOPT A FAMILY IN NEED
Individuals, groups, and families are invited to adopt a family of any size by filling out our online form or calling our office. Adopters provide family packages which include food gift certificates, clothing for the family, a gift for each child, and household items like blankets, towels, or sheets. Adopters will deliver these items to our warehouse during the designated drop off days in December.
