Adopt-A-Family is a holiday giving program in San Diego County that helps Lifeline clients celebrate the holiday season by connecting them with local businesses, organizations, and individuals who “adopt” them. Each year, we are deeply grateful for the incredible outpouring of generosity from our community. Thank you for continuing to make this program possible.
