Spread the spirit of giving this holiday season!
The Lake Superior Village Youth & Family Center is once again hosting its annual Adopt-a-Family Program, bringing warmth and joy to local families who need a little extra support during the holidays.

We invite families, individuals, organizations, churches, and businesses to “adopt” a local family and help ensure every child in Marquette wakes up to smiles on Christmas morning.

What is a “Giving Tree”? A Giving Tree is a Christmas tree decorated with ornaments or gift tags to be taken by community members who are able and willing to make a difference during the holiday season. The tags contain parts of Christmas wish lists, typically coming from children of low-income families. In this case, the kids who will be impacted live in Lake Superior Village.

There are six Giving Trees around Marquette: at the Marquette Township Office, Kate’s Place Salon, Provisions, Contrast Coffee, and The Crib—with gift tags for community members to select from and help bring joy to low-income youth in need.

Help us make the holidays special for our residents! We are seeking donations to put together holiday gift boxes. We have 17 residents and would like the boxes to be similar for everyone. Ideas for donations: baskets/boxes, chapstick, hand/foot lotion, warm socks, hats, gloves, coffee, hot chocolate, snacks, grocery store gift cards. Please email our Service Coordinator at odessa.adams@kmgprestige.com to coordinate your donation. Thank you!
