The Adopt A Family project provides food, clothing and toys to 500 of Santa Cruz County's neediest families during the holiday season. Every year we have over 100 children on our wait list, and we depend on donations from our Stars project to fill the need.
Here's where you come in....we need your help to create wishing star ornaments or decorating gift bags.
Stars - Use our template to cut out stars from supplies you pick up at our office (or use your own supplies). Decorate the stars and write gift requests on them from our wish list. When done, drop them off at our office, or if you have a business you can display them for your customers/employees.
Express interest using the button below and we will send you the detailed instructions and star template and you can sign up for a specific time to pick up supplies.

These stars are displayed at local businesses for members in the community to see specific gift needs of children and families who were not adopted. people pick up the stars, purchase the gift and return them to the bank or business.
