Adopt a Family for the Holidays
Looking to give back those in
need this Thanksgiving or Holiday season?
We are running our annual “ADOPT-A-FAMILY
THANKSGIVING” and “ADOPT-A-FAMILY SPIRIT OF
CHRISTMAS” programs in November and December and
are in need of sponsors to adopt families.
These are great projects for your whole family,
club, group or workplace to get involved in.
For Thanksgiving, we will
assign you a client family in need of a good
Thanksgiving meal.
You will have the details, including the number
of family members and the gender and ages of the
children, but for the privacy of our clients, we will
withhold their names.
A corporate sponsor provides the turkey; you
provide the rest. Thanksgiving baskets usually contain non-perishable food
items for a Thanksgiving meal, but also can include
containers to cook or store food, festive table
decorations, gift cards, pantry essentials, or other
special treats.
For the Spirit of Christmas
program, we will similarly match you with one of our
client families in need of gifts and food during the
holiday season. We
will provide you with your family’s Holiday Wish List
and the gender and ages of all the family members, and
rely on you to do the gift shopping and wrapping.
You can also sponsor a family by providing a food
basket for the Spirit of Christmas program, or donating
gift cards to distribute to several families in need.
If you are interested in adopting a
family for Thanksgiving or Christmas, email or call:
