“Teen Angels” Holiday Outreach

Looking for “Angels” in our community to help teens during the holiday

Adams County Independent Living

The Adams County Independent Living (IL) is offering a holiday outreach for youth 14-18 years of age.  This program targets youth who are in need of holiday assistance and are receiving services through Adams County Children & Youth Services (ACCYS) and/or receiving IL services to help plan and prepare for living on their own.  These youth often receive few gifts over the holidays and, because of their age, do not qualify for most of the existing holiday programs. 

Sponsors will receive a wish list with the age and gender of the youth they are purchasing items for.  The wishes may include clothing, personal and household items, crafts, games, or sporting equipment. Sponsors are not obligated to purchase all the items on the wish list, but we ask to please advise our sponsor coordinator, Gary Fox, of the items you do not plan to buy. Please wrap all gifts or place them in gift bags. Place a gift tag on each package or bag with the TA # so that the gift gets to the correct youth. Drop-off times will be made available. 

Anyone can be a sponsor- an individual, a family, an employee of a company, an organization, a church group or a business!  If you, or someone you know, would be interested in being a sponsor, please contact Gary Fox at gfox82@hotmail.com or 717-398-9100 or Beck Arter at rarter@adamscounty.us.

Thank you for your consideration of helping the teens in our community!
