Adopt-A-Family

Through our annual Adopt-A-Family program, Boys & Girls Clubs of Monterey County partnered with more than 350 children and their families last year—families who are working hard, dreaming big, and navigating a challenging season. Thank you for all of your support!

This year, even more families have asked for support, as they struggle to put food on the table this holiday season.

A gift of $350 sponsors one child and provides their family with:
🧥 A cozy sweatshirt and fleece jacket
👖 Two pairs of pants and two shirts
🧦 Socks, shoes, and underwear
📚 An age-appropriate book
🎁 A special gift from the child’s own wish list

With your support, families feel seen, valued, and celebrated. Children experience the joy and wonder of the season, knowing their community believes in them. Rooted in community and delivered with care, every gift honors the families’ dignity and celebrates each child’s unique identity.

Thank you for helping us keep the magic of the holidays alive for our community’s families!
