Families Forward Resource Center coordinates several holiday programs each year to serve under-privileged families. We provide Thanksgiving dinners to several hundred families, provide toy bags to hundreds of children and coordinate an Adopt-a-Family program where members of the community can adopt families and help to provide a richer holiday experience for them.
HOLIDAY TOY DRIVE
Each year Families Forward Resource Center conducts a toy drive that allows us to gift hundreds of children with toys for the holidays.
It’s never to early to start planning. We accept new toys as well as cash donations to purchase for those we don’t receive toys for.

We would like your help with collecting food items for the families. We invite schools, organizations, business, individuals and other families to help collect food items from their community.
