As we wind down the work week and prepare for the holiday week that is fast approaching, crossing the last few gifts off our shopping lists, baking those final batches of cookies, and decorating gingerbread houses, let us take a moment to remember the children enrolled in Astor’s #adoptafamily program.

Adopt-A-Family brings a sparkle of joy to 1,800 children in need this holiday season by providing their parent/guardian with a gift card to purchase an item from their wish list 🎁

It’s not too late to be a part of the magic - together, we can create moments of hope and kindness that will last a lifetime. ✨ We have raised 63% of our $67,000 fundraising goal ✨
