Adopt A Family |
|
The Adopt A Family program seeks to make Christmas more enjoyable to families in need. During the Christmas season each school grade "adopts" a needy family, and the class collects and creates gifts for them. The very real good done by this program brings participating families together by reminding us both of the great need which exists in our community and the sustaining power inherent in deeds of charity and love. Parents and children together touch a truer Christmas.
Saint Margaret’s Center identifies families needing Christmas charity and cheer. Class coordinators organize each grade’s gift collecting and creating. Class angels (families) take on specific gift requests and help with delivery.
The commitment is modest, and the rewards are great!
