WE RUN ON 100% VOLUNTEER POWER!
In 2019 both my mother and father passed away suddenly just four months apart. Our family was struggling. My children and grandchildren had such a connection to their grandparents and now they were gone.
In 2020 we saw a local nursing home asking for donations of Christmas gifts for their senior residents because they had been so lonely and isolated through the Covid pandemic. They wanted to do something nice to cheer up their residents. Due to the Covid 19 pandemic we were not holding our annual event for local children and families in need, so our family decided to Adopt all of the Grandparents in that facility and we provided the gifts they were requesting, as a way to honor my parents.
That led us to research what programs were available for our local seniors who may not have a strong support system, and realizing there was a need the Adopt A Grandparent Programs were created.
My parents are no longer with us, but through these programs my family has found a way to honor their memory by helping others.
We welcome you to join us as we share kindness and love with our local seniors who may need it the most - and remind them that they are not alone or forgotten!
The Adopt A Grandparent programs work with low income seniors and senior veterans residing in senior living facilities, nursing homes and memory care facilities.
Everyone loves to receive a little something on Valentine's Day.
Join us in spreading a little love and letting our participating seniors know they are thought of.
We are now seeking schools, groups and clubs with children that may want to make Valentine's cards that can be distributed.
Small gifts and sweet treats are always a hit, so we encourage you to visit our Wish Lists if you'd like to participate by providing items for their goody bags.

We did it again McHenry County and our hearts are so grateful to you!
The 2022 Adopt A Grandparent Holiday Program was a huge success. Because of you over 500 seniors, veterans and military family members are reminded that they are not alone.
This year's seniors included those from Lutheran Social Service of Illinois Gable Point, Alden Terrace, Fair Oaks, Crossroads, McHenry County Senior Services and the Villagers, to name a few.
Gifts were provided to low income seniors and senior veterans, handmade gifts were provided to military members, warm winter gear was provided to homeless veterans and our team provided holiday gifts to a military family that sadly just lost their mother and a local Crystal Lake family.
We made a difference, we spread blessings far and wide, and that my friends is what Christmas is all about.
Photos from the event can be found on our Event Photos page and we want to say THANK YOU to everyone who helped make this program possible.
Special thanks to the big man himself, Tim Olsen Sr. for all you do to spread the reason for the season.
