Some Service Members and families may have had a difficult year, so putting together a Christmas or other winter holiday celebrations can be a real challenge for some of them. The Colorado National Guard Family Programs Office provides holiday support to eligible Service Members and families through the Adopt-A-Family program.
The Adopt-A-Family program helps businesses, organizations, and individuals support qualified Service Members and families that could use some help providing a holiday celebration for their families. The minimum requirement to adopt a family is to provide gifts from family’s wish list for the children. (Please do not feel that all items on wish list must be purchased)
Donor’s information is kept confidential. You will receive information such as age, gender, likes and interests, specials needs, etc. for adopted. Additionally, at time of registration, you will be provided the opportunity to select one of our 4 drop off locations throughout the state. (Grand Junction, Windsor, Centennial and Colorado Springs). Please do not wrap gifts, if you would like to provide wrapping paper for gifts, we welcome it. This allows parents the opportunity to feel include in the gift giving experience.
Donor Registration opens: 15 Oct 0800

The Adopt-a-Family program is essential to assisting Colorado National Guard members and their family in having a successful and happy holiday season and would not be possible without giving people like you.

All faiths and religions are welcome to participate. Program is only for current Colorado National Guard Families. Gifts or gift cards will be provided for Service Members children ages 0-18.
