Sorry for the delay. I was out of town. If you are still looking for a family to adopt, try the Salvation Army. I belong to a church group that has been working with them for years.

The kind where they assign you to a family in need and provide some info so that you can give each of the children presents. (Or it doesn't have to be kids if there are groups that work with older adults instead.)

My last office used to do this as a group but my current office doesn't and I'd love to find a way to do it on my own.


Dear Santa letters and toy drives are geared to the very young. The forgotten ones are always the young teens and older teens.
YCS is for 13 to 17. I always enjoyed filling the Wish list for this group.

Hope House, Project Home and even the Battered Women Shelter are taken care of through many groups.

You may also want to go the Boys and Girls Club. They always know of a families in dire need.
