FAQ's
-
Can I be in direct contact with the family?
Yes, we encourage you to contact the family early on to establish a connection, ask any questions and ensure that you understand their needs.
-
How much can I expect to spend on each child?
It ranges from $40-$75, depending on needs. Make sure that MUSD knows your budget so that we can select the proper family to adopt.
-
What is estimated cost of a meal for a family of four?
$50-$60, depending on the number of adults and ages of children.
-
Do I need to buy and deliver fresh/frozen food or are gift certificates okay?
Gift certificates are accepted. We suggest Walmart or Fry’s, however; remember that not all families have transportation or the ability to go shopping. Again, when you communicate with the family, you will better understand their needs.
-
If they cannot pickup and I cannot deliver, can I still adopt a family?
When you speak with our coordinator, indicate that you can’t deliver. There are other options for delivery.
-
Should I wrap the gifts?
We encourage you to ask the family for their preference.
-
Will I be provided a needs/wants list with sizes of children?
Yes, this will be provided on a family needs form. You should confirm information when you contact the family.
-
Can a donation be completed ASAP – versus waiting until right before the holiday?
Yes, please let our coordinator know if you have time constraints and we will work with your schedule.
