We are actively preparing for the 2025 Adopt-a-Family program.
Years ago, we realized that many of our client families were struggling during the holiday season. To
address this need, we launched our Adopt-A-Family program, inviting community members and local
companies to ‘adopt’ one or more families and purchase ‘gifts from the heart.’
How it works – Through this ‘adoption’ process, low-income families that are receiving services from Brighter Beginnings programs are matched with a donor who purchases gifts and/or gift cards and
drops them off at one of our centers in Alameda or Contra Costa County. Last year approximately 308
families and nearly 1,000 family members had their holiday wishes fulfilled thanks to our generous
donors.
Brighter Beginnings believes every family matters and every child deserves to have a happy, healthy future. Our multi-cultural, bi-lingual staff of passionate and committed family-service professionals work within our closest Bay Area communities to support healthy births and the successful development of children by partnering with parents and helping to build strong communities. Our ultimate goal is to help parents with limited financial, support, and medical resources become self-sufficient so they can raise happy, healthy children. In return, we visualize a prospering community full of healthy and happy children who grow up to also be happy and self-sufficient parents.
