YOU Make the Holidays Bright for SAAF Clients

Kids-Christmas-Card-ArtAs summer is winding down & we’re drying out from the monsoons, it can only mean one thing: the holidays are just around the corner! Family Day is almost here and we are getting ready to celebrate with our clients!
 
Family Day is a heartwarming event where SAAF, in collaboration with the Tucson Interfaith HIV/AIDS Network (TIHAN), gives our clients who are parents the opportunity to select holiday gifts for their children and their children the opportunity to select gifts for them. This year’s event will be held on Saturday December 12 and will include craft activities, a light lunch, and pictures with Santa. We expect to brighten the holidays of more than 100 children this year.
 
As in years past, we anticipate having challenges collecting enough gifts for teen boys, a substantial portion of the youth we serve. If you would like to donate those gifts or gift cards so we can shop for them, please contact Brian Muñoz, SAAF’s Support Sevices Coordinator, at (520) 547-6135 or bmunoz@saaf.org. Below are suggestions for in kind donations that you can make to the holiday project. Don’t have time to shop? Let us do it for you! You can make a direct donation to the holiday project through the link below.
