2025 Adopt an Emergency Shelter Family for the Holidays

My Sisters' Place provides critical support to victims and survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking, offering family and immigration legal services, domestic violence advocacy, and emergency shelter. Many families in its shelters have been displaced after fleeing abusive partners and are now seeking safety. For many, this will be their first holiday season away from home without the comfort or support of loved ones.

This holiday season, volunteers are invited to bring warmth and hope by "adopting" an emergency shelter family for the holidays. After being matched with an anonymous family, volunteers will receive a brief family profile and their holiday wish list. Volunteers will then purchase the requested gifts and deliver them to the My Sisters' Place office, where they will be distributed to the families.
