Thank you for your request to adopt a family!
Families are nominated on behalf of recognized domestic agencies in the Hamden area for their own special reasons. Some families may be struggling to meet/acquire monthly expenses or common household items while others might be facing an extraordinarily challenging time.
By agreeing to adopt a family, you are making a commitment to provide the family with enough gifts for them to create a meaningful Holiday / Christmas experience. We do not set a minimum expectation as to what you can, or are willing to, provide for the family but we ask that when buying for families with multiple children - please keep gifts equal. The Wish List families provide is meant as a gift buying guide.

Thank you for your support, and Happy Holiday!
Best,
Hamden Community Services
