If you’ve never adopted a family for the holidays, maybe this year is the time to do it. Through churches, shelters and local Salvation Army locations, you can be get connected with a family in need. If you look at your finances and see that you don’t have the extra cash to spend on gifts for another family, consider a couple of options.
One, you could adopt just one child or assist by providing just one gift to the program. Two, you could make this a family event. Get your children and spouse involved where everyone gives up one or more of their gifts to ensure that another family gets to have a Christmas. You’ll find that your family will bond over this experience and you may even look to do something more next year!
Give it some thought. It’s not too late to help another family. It’s not too late to make someone’s Christmas.
