What is the Christmas Family Program?

The Christmas Family Program is delivered in an "adopt-a-family" format where families in need can create a wishlist and UCFS donors choose a wishlist to fulfill. In December, families come to UCFS' offices for photos with Santa, holiday refreshments, and crafts and then pick up their gifts to take home and enjoy in a family setting on Christmas Day!
