If you wish to donate items not posted on our website (Holiday giving, adopting a family, etc.), please contact our office before shopping. To ensure that each family receives sponsorship for the Holidays, we will provide a list of the families in need. The list will include: age, gender, clothing size, etc. of each family member.
