Holiday Hope for Families Impacted by Incarceration
Help Make the Season Brighter for Families Affected by Incarceration!

This year, we’ve received more requests than ever from families impacted by incarceration who are hoping for a little extra support this holiday season. We’re looking for community members, organizations, and groups who would like to help support our families in one of three ways:
1. 'Adopt' a family ($100 - $500 depending on family size adopted)
2. Donate "MAC" Sack items for Children in our Milk and Cookies Program (appox. $40 per Mac Sack)
3. Donate Children's Socks and Underwear - or Host a Drive! ($10-$15 per pack)

ADOPT A FAMILY

We know every family — and every budget — is different. To help you plan, here’s a general idea of what it typically costs to provide a modest but meaningful holiday package for each family size:

Small Family (2–3 members): $100–$150
Enough to cover a few thoughtful gifts for the child(ren) and a household item or gift card for the caregiver.

Medium Family (4–5 members): $200–$300
Covers individual gifts for each child plus something small for the caregiver or family to share together.

Large Family (6+ members): $350-$500
Ensures every child receives something personal, with a few shared items or a grocery gift card to bring everyone together.

We encourage you to give within your means — every contribution helps make the season brighter for a family navigating the challenges of incarceration.

Someone will reach out to you soon to assign you a family/families.
