Valley charities are mounting an effort to provide for the needy this holiday season, and they say one way you can help is by adopting a family.
“We are looking for people to adopt families. We have about 600 children in our adopt-a-family program, so we really need a lot of help with that," said Nicole Pena with the Phoenix Rescue Mission.
Pena said you get a child’s wish list, and the maximum donation is $50, so it is just a couple toys. You are also expected to provide a food box for the family.
You can get involved on the Rescue Mission’s website, phoenixrescuemission.org.
