As the air turns brisk outside and the seasons change, it’s a sign that winter and the holidays will soon be here. Our greatest season of need at the Club is around Christmas time. With help from kind and generous donors like you, the Club tries to ease the burden on our families in the greatest need through our Adopt a Family program. Club families, who are referred to the program by fulltime staff, create wishlists for each child in their household (including both toys and clothing items that are needed). From there, the Club matches each family with a donor and provides the donor with the family’s wishlists so they can shop and wrap gifts for their adopted family. If you are interested in adopting a family this year, please contact Boys & Girls Club Marketing Director, Katie Huebner at 920- 233-1414, ext. 122 or katieh@bgcosh.org. Donors will be matched with families from October to early December as families become available. Last year the Club was able to assist over 150 Club members and their families for the holidays! With your help, we can make the 2018 holiday season a joyful one again for many Boys & Girls Club members and families.
