CRN’s Adopt a Shelter program welcomes companies, schools, neighborhoods, groups, or individuals to “adopt a shelter” during the holidays. CRN will match each group with a facility that houses the number of children the group would feel comfortable adopting. For example, at Christmas, we consider a child “adopted” if they receive $100 in gifts. If your group is willing to spend $1,000, CRN will pair your group with a shelter or group home with 10 children.

CRN will provide you with the children’s wish list so your group can purchase the gifts they desire. You then may have the option of hosting a party for the children or letting CRN take care of that part. Past parties have included going to the movies, bowling, or a pizza party.  It’s up to your group to decide how to make this time of year special for the children.
