Holiday “Adopt-a-Family” program pairs local donors with Boys & Girls Club families facing financial challenges, to ensure everyone gets gifts for the Holidays
Last year, we served over 200 families who had difficulties fulfilling their children’s holiday wishes through the program. We hope to encourage everyone, at any level, to join the legacy of giving.”
FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, UNITED STATES, November 1, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Seeing the excitement on a child’s face as they anxiously tear open their holiday gifts is one of life’s unforgettable moments. Yet, for hundreds of families in South Florida, creating those special memories has become more challenging than ever.— Matt Organ, Co-CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County.
Through the generosity of their donors, Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County and their Holiday “Adopt-a-Family” program is working to make sure no family in need goes without this year. Now, through December 15th, supporters can “adopt” a Club family, and the Club will, in turn, provide family information and a “wish list” to the donor. The donor can choose to either shop themselves, or make a donation, in any amount, and an “Adopt-a-Family” representative will shop on their behalf
“Last year, we served over 200 families who had difficulties fulfilling their children’s holiday wishes through the program,” said Matt Organ, Co-CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County. Organ continued, “This year, with the support and generosity of our amazing communities, our goal is to make sure all of our Club members, their parents, and siblings have something under the tree to make their holidays brighter. We hope to encourage everyone, at any level, to join the legacy of giving.”
In addition to monetary donations, new and unwrapped toys, clothing or food gift cards can be dropped off at any Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County location.
