Adopt-A-Family
*Due to high number of applications we are no longer accepting applicants for Riverside location*
A long-standing holiday tradition at Catholic Charities is our Adopt-A-Family Program, where you make Christmas possible for one very low-income family. Families range in size and need, and are pre-screened by our staff to develop specific wish lists for the children. You are assigned a family based on your interest and capacity to give. Gift items may include toys, gift cards, clothes, and the fixings for a holiday meal.
