Hundreds of Johns Hopkins faculty, staff, and students have registered to help brighten the holidays for families facing hardships by participating in the Adopt-a-Family/Senior program facilitated by the Office of Government, Community, and Economic Partnerships.

Each year Johns Hopkins partners with local nonprofit and social service agencies to provide gifts, clothing, and grocery gift cards to families and individuals in need of assistance during the holiday season.

Departments or individuals who have registered are asked to drop off their wrapped gifts between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 4, or Wednesday, Dec. 5, at Johns Hopkins at Eastern, 1101 E. 33rd St. If you are unable to drop them off on those days, you can coordinate an earlier delivery date and time by emailing communityprograms@jh.edu.
