Adopt a Family Brings Joy to 400 ICAN Families This Year

Holiday spirit, presents, wrapping paper, and so much community support!

We can’t express our appreciation enough to everyone who helps us provide gifts year after year for families who receive services from ICAN. It helps make the holidays brighter, reducing a little stress and bringing a lot of joy!

Our ICAN families and individuals get to pick from 4 categories to ensure they get what they want and need!

So many people help make this program possible.

• Our community members, businesses and organizations who shop and donate
• Our administrative staff coordinates this huge undertaking, accepting and sorting the thousands of gifts
• Additional ICAN staff come together to make drop-offs and pick-ups go smooth
• Dozens of frontline staff deliver them right to our families! 

It’s an incredible program and AGAIN we exceeded our numbers from last year! 

In our 22nd year of Adopt a Family, we were able to make 400 local families' and 979 individuals' holidays brighter! We can’t tell you how incredibly grateful we are to be part of such an amazing and generous community.

The thanks doesn't stop there! So many individuals and businesses from the community make Adopt a Family possible by supporting us including:
