On behalf of Variety the Children’s Charity, we are pleased to announce the 17th Annual Variety Holiday Adopt-a-Child Program!
This important initiative seeks to provide holiday gifts of clothing, toys, and other essentials to deserving children in our communities. The Variety Holiday Adopt-a-Child mission is simple: giving the gift of joy this season to children across Southeastern Michigan.
Variety Holiday Adopt-a-Child has sponsored thousands of children since inception. This year, we ask you to share in the giving spirit with Variety’s children as we hope you and your family will adopt a child (or children!) in need.
To participate, simply email Karen@VarietyDetroit.com with your contact information and the number of children you would like to adopt. Variety will provide you with pertinent details about your child(ren) and the shopping begins!
We invite you and your family to bring your unwrapped gifts to Professional Rug Works (1020 Livernois Road in Troy) on Saturday, December 7, 2024 from 9:00 am - 2:00 pm where we will share the festive spirit with music and food while we wrap presents. We provide the wrapping paper and trimmings for the gifts! The wrapped gifts will be tagged and subsequently delivered to the children.
This special day is a one-of-a-kind experience–you will surely enjoy the goodwill of our Variety family and friends who give of themselves to ensure a happier, healthier, and more independent childhood for children. You may wish to adopt one child, several in a family, or to sponsor a child through a contribution. There is no set amount; however, Variety strives to provide each child with
several gifts.
Not a shopper? Consider making a meaningful contribution to sponsor a child in need. Our volunteers will do the shopping!
To pledge your support or if you have questions, please contact Karen at (248) 258-5511 or email karen@varietydetroit.com.
Looking for a great company-wide initiative? Or a great school or team effort?
Companies, corporations, schools, sports teams and troops are encouraged to consider toy drives throughout the year to support this effort. We welcome the donation of NEW toys in ORIGINAL PACKAGING (unwrapped) to support the toy table at workshop each year. If you or your company is interested in coordinating a collection or toy drive, please contact Variety at 248.258.5511 or email info@varietydetroit.com for more details. Toys must be in hand to Variety no later than November 15.
Please note: the children sponsored through this program are pre-selected in conjunction with dedicated Variety partnerships with social service agencies and community partners.
