HOLIDAY GIVING PROGRAMS 2018
ADOPT-A-FAMILY
Interfaith Family Services provides holiday gifts to families through our Adopt-A-Family program. Beginning in October, families are interviewed and asked to provide one $50 gift idea and one gift card request valued at $25 for each child. Our program also furnishes each family with a $25 gift card so that they may buy something for their homes. The total cost of adopting a family with one child is approximately $100, with an additional $75 cost for each additional child in the family. We also ask that you include gift wrapping supplies. We will have both small and large families available for adoption.
INTERFAITH’S HOLIDAY TOY DRIVE
Interfaith’s Holiday Toy Drive is a program in which the community comes together to donate new toys and gifts for children and teens. These gifts are collected by Interfaith and distributed from a local fire station. Families requesting assistance come to the station and choose from a wonderful selection of new toys and gift items for their children. This is a wonderful opportunity for families in need to ensure that their children will receive gifts during the holidays.
HOLIDAY FOOD ASSISTANCE
Each of the families receiving Holiday assistance is given three bags of groceries plus a turkey or a grocery store gift certificate for a turkey.
**lnterfaith also provides vouchers for a winter coat for each family member to be redeemed at the Interfaith Hand Me Up Shop. **
