In our Adopt the House Program, an individual, group, family or business commits to providing essentials for the House for one week -- perishable items like fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, milk and bread; cleaning supplies to keep the House bright, cheery and healthy; or basic toiletries, like soap, shampoo, toothbrushes and toothpaste for families that need them. Sometimes people that adopt the House choose to purchase needed items themselves and sometimes they donate gift cards or cash for staff members to purchase the needed items.
Needs vary from week to week. One week we may need an extra gallon of milk. Another week, it might be supplies for dinner on a night we don’t have a meal scheduled. It all depends on the needs of the House and the number of families in the House at the time.
Every donation, large or small, helps families who are far from home and dealing with a sick or injured child.
Neighborhoods, work groups and families can join together for a good cause. This can be a one-time or recurring opportunity.
