Adopt-a-Family distributes coats, seeks funds for holiday food boxes

AAF will provide holiday food boxes to Greene County families and individuals in need again this holiday season. Last year, 2023, was a record year, with 170 families receiving food boxes.  

AAF is preparing for another record year of families and individuals needing help. AAF remains committed to making sure the food needs of Greene County are being met. Distribution day is  Saturday, December 14.  AAF is very thankful for the people that continue to volunteer to make this project successful year after year.

In addition to the food program, AAF supplied winter outerwear to 150 Greene County children. This program has served many Greene County children over the years. The winter clothing distribution was held Oct. 19.  AAF is determined to help Greene County children stay warm during the cold Iowa winter. 

In the past, AAF has been generously supported through donations. We are very thankful for the support. Our biggest need is funds so we can serve as many families as possible.  Monetary donations can be sent to:  Adopt-a-Family, PO Box 364, Jefferson, IA 50129.

Donations can also be made directly to the AAF account at area Peoples Bank locations.

AAF greatly appreciates the past generosity and looks forward to working together again this year to meet the essential needs in our community.
