Adopt A Family

Interested in Adopting A Family in 2017?

Step 1: Sign up & get a wish list

Simply let us know that you are interested in becoming an Adopt A Family donor by filling out the interest form below, and we’ll be in touch with you. You can sign up as an individual or a group. Adopt A Family is also a great giving and team building opportunity for companies and organizations.

Wishlists for the 2017 Adopt A Family program will be available in late October, 2017.

Even if you can’t shop for and wrap gifts, you can still support Adopt a Family! Along with gifts, CHN provides cleaning and personal care supplies to our families through Adopt A Family and ongoing throughout the year. Fill out the interest form and start collecting items from this basic supplies list. Try putting out a collection box at your school, church, or office.

Step 2: Shop for gifts

• We recommend spending no more than $100 per recipient
• Shop anywhere you’d like – use your coupon-cutting skills!
• All items must be new purchases

Step 3: Wrap & label your gifts

• Wrap each gift individually
• You can use gift bags, wrapping paper, or any other festive wrapping
• Label each gift individually with the participant’s first name and last initial along with the number that has been assigned to them. This information will be on the wish lists.
• CHN will provide printed labels, but you can use your own if you prefer.

Step 4: Deliver gifts to CHN

Wrapped and labeled gifts can be dropped off at our distribution centers no later than Monday, December 4, 2017.

Make a cash donation to Adopt A Family

If you don’t have time to shop and wrap, you can still support Adopt A Family. Cash donations are accepted throughout the year and are used to shop for families and individuals who aren’t adopted and to help support some of the minimal costs of operating the program.
