Adopt-A-Family participants provide warmth and happiness for families in need during the holiday season through the sponsorship of a family within IPH’s programs. Participants provide their contact information and the preferred family size they can commit to sponsoring and are then assigned to a family based on their preferences. Participants will purchase gifts for each child in their "adopted" family and optionally, for the guardians/parents.
