Adopt a Family

Adopt-a-Family matches client families with people in our community who are able to provide a holiday gift for each family member.

Help Families Have a Bright Holiday

This year, we have reached our goal and are beginning to match 200 families with donors.

If you were unable to sign up, but would like to support children and families during the holidays, you can still donate and put “Adopt-a-Family” in the notes.

We’ll use this money to purchase any missing gifts, buy gift cards, and make sure our clients have a bright holiday.

HOW IT WORKS

Bringing holiday cheer to an Any Baby Can client family is easy. We have client families both large and small that need gifts this holiday season.

Step 1

Sign up and we'll match you with a family based on your giving preferences.

Step 2

You'll be notified by mid-November of which family you've been matched with.

Step 3

Purchase gifts off their wish list (about $50 per family member).

Step 4

Bring the wrapped gifts to our office in North Central Austin.

Step 5

We'll get your gifts to client families by mid-December.

Questions? Contact Donor Relations Coordinator Amelia Brown at amelia.brown@anybabycan.org.

If you’re a current client looking to receive holiday gifts, please contact your case manager, nurse or therapist.

Tips for Giving

  • Enlist your family, coworkers and neighbors to pitch in on buying gifts or signing up to adopt families!
  • Remember to include batteries for any items that require them.
  • Consider donating gift bags, wrapping paper and tape.
  • If you don't have time to purchase gifts, donate directly to Any Baby Can so that we may purchase missing gifts for families.

Unique Giving Opportunity for Teams

If you're part of a team or company looking for a meaningful way to give back, we have a few families who have more extensive needs and could use your support. We'll work with you to match your group with a special family. We'll connect you to the family's case manager and you'll be given a detailed wish list – everything from clothing and therapeutic equipment to legal representation and home repairs.

For corporate giving opportunities, contact Michele Speich.

Meet Kayden

Many of our client families don’t have the money to provide a holiday experience that many of us take for granted. Kayden’s mom, Ashton, spends her money and time on medical bills, transportation, resources for her son, and other basic needs.

Gifts under the tree didn’t help Kayden learn to walk. Our physical therapists helped with that, along with the hard work of his mom and grandma. But Adopt-a-Family gifts did brighten this kiddo’s day and ease a young mom’s stress as she strives to provide her child the best life possible.

“Any Baby Can gave me Christmas gifts for my children when I couldn't buy them something. I noticed changes in myself all thanks to the counseling, and Any Baby Can. Thank y'all from the bottom of my heart.”
