We have already started planning for Adopt a Family 2023 and we are so excited to announce that the program has been fully funded thanks to the amazing success of the Backyard BBQ Brawl. This incredibly generous group of Oconee community members have made it possible to serve the needs of even more families this year.
While we have funding, we still need your help!
