Holiday Adopt-a-Child & Santa's Workshop

We are pleased to announce the 16th 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.   The children are pre-selected in conjunction with dedicated partnerships with social service agencies and community partners. 

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 call or email Variety 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! 

Then, we invite you and your family to bring your unwrapped gifts to Pro Rug Warehouse (1020 Livernois Road in Clawson) on Saturday,  December 2, 2023 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! Volunteers will also be on hand to help.  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.  

To pledge your support or if you have questions, please contact Karen at (248) 258-5511 or email karen@varietydetroit.com. On behalf of Variety’s children, we thank you for your continued support and wish you a joyous holiday season!
