Adopt a Family
'Tis the season - Community Services for Every1's annual Adopt a Family program has launched!
Every year, generous donors give the families we support some extra help during the holiday season. This year, we have 57 families in need and we need your help!
If you're interested in adopting a family, visit the menu above and select "Items" to view families up for adoption. Select a family, check out, and start your shopping! For wrapping and tagging, we ask that you tag each gift with the names of the family, gender and age, (example: Boy, Age 8) for easy delivery/distribution, and drop the items off at 180 Oak Street, Buffalo, by December 13th. If wrapping is not possible, let us know. Watch the brief tutorial below for instructions on how to adopt a family.
In addition to adopting families, we are accepting donations of the following new, unused items: bedding and sheets, winter hats, gloves, and scarves for adults and children, and basic household items. You do not need to register to donate these items. Please bring them to 180 Oak Street, Buffalo, no later than December 13th (these items must be in original packaging).
If you are unable to adopt a family but would still like to participate, we are also accepting monetary donations.
Thank you for everything you do to support the Community Services for Every1 mission. We're looking forward to another successful holiday season!
