Primghar, Iowa — Many people are making Christmas plans this time of year, but for some people they just hope to be able to survive as a family from day-to-day.
Upper Des Moines Opportunity sponsors and runs a program every year called “Adopt-A-Family”. Brenda Collier with Upper Des Moines says it’s a program that lets community members and groups or organizations provide holiday gifts for needy families.
She says it’s all anonymous and they only identify each family by a number. She tells us how the families can qualify.
Collier says if you or your family or business is interested in adopting a family, you can find the list on our web site at kiwaradio.com. Then call the Upper Des Moines office to tell them who you picked because the list is constantly changing.
According to Collier, adopting a family is a great way to get into the Christmas spirit.
