Adopt-a-Family Holiday Program

Our 2023 Adopt-a-Family holiday program!

The Adopt-a-Family program assists selected current or alumni Beyond Blindness families by anonymously matching them with program donors who wish to brighten the lives of the children and families in our community.

This program will provide selected families with gifts and necessities selected from each family’s holiday wish list.
