Adopt-A-Family program in need of more sponsors
More sponsors are desperatley needed for the Adopt-A-Family program in Red Deer.
That according to Barb Barber, executive director for Women’s Outreach that runs the program each year.
Barber says they are currently 20 sponsors short of being able to support all the families they have in need right now.
“For Adopt-A-Family this year, we’re on the final push,” she exclaims. “The families that we do have are single parent families with two kids. So if anybody is in a position where they’re able to help us out, whether they want to do the shopping themselves or whether they’re in a position where they can just help financially and we can have our volunteers shop, the help would be greatly appreciated.”
