The Adopt A Grandparent Holiday Program is definitely a senior favorite.
This program offers each participating senior the opportunity to create a wish list of items they may want or need, but may not be able to afford.
We then work with the community to fill those wish lists and make Christmas magic happen for our participating seniors.
So many of the seniors in our programs don’t have family close by to support them. This is our way of letting them know that they are not alone or forgotten.
The seniors that participate in our programs reside in low income living facilities, nursing homes and/or memory care facilities. We also support seniors through McHenry County Senior Services.
Here’s an easy way to support our Adopt A Grandparent seniors by providing a gift they have requested.
Items can be purchased anywhere and dropped off at the Fisher Outreach Group, Inc. office located at 8600 US Hwy 14, Suite 106A, Crystal Lake (lower level). Monday-Friday 8am-4:30. If an alternate day/time is needed please let us know.

Our hearts are full….THANK YOU!.
We are so egg-cited to announce that our last minute, pre Valentine’s Day, Adopt A Grandparent Egg Project was a huge success.
Backstory….I received several calls/texts/messages from our seniors asking where they could find eggs…that weren’t $5.99 a dozen because they couldn’t afford them at that price.
Broke my heart. So I took to social media asking the community where I could find eggs for under $5 a dozen because Fisher Outreach Group wanted to buy eggs and gift them to our seniors.
That lead to our amazing community, coming together once again and making magic happen!!
Our thanks to the FOG team, the wonderful people at Blessed Little Kitchen (Huntley), Papa Saverios of Huntley, and the community, for your donations of eggs and egg cartons.
Because of you we were able to distribute 240 dozen eggs to local seniors and to the families at Family Health Partnership Clinic!
The smiles said it all and reminds me once again, how truly simple it is to make a difference in someone’s life. It reminds me of the difference we can make when we pull together as a community.
It’s why Fisher Outreach Group is a 100% Volunteer based Non Profit Organization. That means that no one earns a salary or financial compensation for running our group and 100% of any funds/items donated go directly to the programs we offer.
