The time is quickly approaching for the Christmas holiday! Around this time last year, many of you adopted families in Project Sleighbells through the OC Rescue Mission. It was a wonderful experience being a part of a program where gifts and love were hand-delivered to families in great need. Not only were we able to give to those who have so little, but also be blessed in the process of giving a word of encouragement to families that needed it most.
This year we are adopting 35 deserving families right here in San Juan Capistrano. They are all a part of Even Start Family Literacy Program in the Capo Unified School District. Each family is considered low-income and have gone through the qualification process and made a commitment to this long-term literacy program. The school district has come alongside each family with parent and child classes, accountability, and reading programs to equip each adult and child to increase their literacy. The goal is to help these individuals become active and English-literate members in our schools and communities.
A Christmas Event will be held Saturday, December 6th at 10am in San Juan Capistrano. At this time we will have an opportunity to hand-deliver our gifts and spend time with these families. Details and exact location of the event are still to come.
Each person will receive a gift of $15- $20 value, given directly to them on the day of the event. If you would like to adopt a child or adult, OR a family, please email us at socalconnected@yahoo.com or call (949)939-9540. Let us know if you would like to adopt a child, adult, or family in your response. In order to help you with your shopping, we will email you the age and gender of the individual . Also, please let us know if you will be able to attend the Christmas gathering on Dec.6th. You CAN still purchase gifts even if you cannot attend the gathering. Please contact us about arranging a pick up.
Thank you so very much for your help during these tough times for many!
Blessings,
