What is the Adopt-A-Family Program?

With the help of The Salvation Army,
the Adopt-A-Family program matches businesses, groups, families and individuals
with a Saskatoon family who needs a helping hand during the holiday season.

Generous donors then shop for gifts, non-perishable food items and groceries
to give these families support and a special Christmas.

Families and local businesses, like YOU, can help.

About Adopt-A-Family

The Adopt-A-Family program started in 1988.
For over 35 years, Adopt-A-Family has been encouraging businesses, families and individuals to ‘adopt a family’ and purchase food and gifts for less fortunate Saskatoon families through The Salvation Army.

In 1988, the program collected $5,000.
Since then, the demand for assistance at Christmas time has grown immensely and so has the program.

Last year, the Adopt-A-Family program brought in more than $60,700 in cash, food and gifts.
As a result, nearly 450 families experienced a special Christmas.

Can’t shop for a family, but still want to help?

Cash donations are appreciated
and will used to buy grocery gift cards and other gift items
that help even more families!

Thanks to Our Partners

LOCAL GENEROSITY GIVES HUNDREDS OF FAMILIES HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

 

This year’s Adopt-A-Family program brought in more than $60,700 in cash, food and gifts. As a result, nearly 450 families will experience a special Christmas.

The public response was incredible and hundreds of people got involved and gave their heart to the cause. Thank you to our listeners, corporate partners, community fundraisers, and everyone who donated generously.

Adopt-A-Family volunteers and team members will receive the gifts and groceries generously donated by sponsors and distribute them to less fortunate Saskatoon families through The Salvation Army from December 11 to 14.
