Adopt-A-List
This holiday season, you can make a lasting difference for children, teens, and young adults served by City House. By adopting a wishlist, you’ll help bring warmth, joy, and hope to youth who have experienced homelessness, abuse, and neglect.
Each wishlist is thoughtfully created by one of our clients and includes their most wished-for items
When you adopt a list, you’re not just giving gifts — you’re reminding our kids that they are seen, cared for, and loved.
Help us fill City House with holiday magic one wishlist at a time!
