Adopt a Family

How it Works - Registration

Hope During Christmas

For many families, Christmas can be stressful. We want to TEAM UP WITH THE COMMUNITY to BRING HOPE and help families to provide a Christmas for their children.

Last year, our Adopt a Family program fed 180 families.  However, the need continues to grow, and through our Adopt a Family Program, you can bring smiles to families during the holiday season.

The Salvation Army’s Adopt a Family Program provides essential support to families during the Christmas season such as food hampers so families can enjoy a nutritious meal and new toys, so children wake up Christmas morning elated that Santa dropped by.
