Connecting community sponsors with families
in need to make their holiday bright
We want to ensure families experiencing hardship can still enjoy the holiday season. That’s why we connect them with generous community sponsors to make their holiday season brighter.
ADOPT-A-FAMILY
One Dublin’s Adopt-A-Family program is for children in the Dublin City School district who are experiencing a temporary hardship.
Identified by school counselors, children must be a high school senior or younger to participate. Each child will provide a wish list and will receive gifts with a combined value of up to $100 (no gift cards), along with a $50 grocery card for the family to use towards their holiday meal.
Families can participate for 5 years but must reapply every year.
To participate in the Adopt-A-Family program, please reach out to your school counselor.
ADOPT-A-SENIOR
One Dublin’s Adopt-A-Senior program is designed to bring a little cheer to Seniors age 62+ or who are experiencing hardship, are isolated, or lonely. Our goal is to bring a little holiday cheer to their lives!
This program supports seniors at a local community that provides affordable housing to seniors. Approximately 48 residents will participate in this program.
Each senior will provide a wish list and will receive gifts with a combined value of up to $50 (no gift cards).

MAKE AN ADDITIONAL DONATION
Behind the scenes, significant effort goes into coordinating our programs. Consider an additional donation to cover administrative costs, such as overhead for our community free shop, to ensure our programs run smoothly and that we can continue to support our community year-round.
