Adoption program winds down with 50+ families left

    HARLAN – The annual Christmas Adoption program is coming to a close, but there are more than 50 families still needing to be adopted this holiday season.
    Dena Matthews with West Central Community Action, said it’s hoped many of the remaining families will be adopted for Christmas later this week.  “But for those who do not get adopted, we are still requesting monetary donations so that we may provide the “unadopted” families with gift cards and a holiday food box,” she said.
    There were a total of 146 families on the adoption list this year, up from 133 last year and 119 in 2013.
    There are three days for families who have been adopted to pick up their gifts.  Those dates are Mon.-Wed., Dec. 21-23, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., and Thursday, Dec. 24 (office closes at noon on the 24th, Christmas Eve).  Families will be called as soon as their gifts are ready for pick-up.
