State Donates $8800 to Holiday Adopt-a-Family

MADISON, Wisc. -- In the spirit of the season, State continued its holiday tradition of Adopt-a-Family by donating $8,800 to provide gifts and other holiday trimmings to area families.

After receiving State’s gift, Tammie King-Johnson from House of Mercy said, “COVID-19 has created a pandemic on top of what was already an epidemic for the homeless. State Collection Services funds will support the homeless in two ways this holiday season. First to purchase Christmas gifts for our Holiday Adopt-a-Family program and secondly to provide emergency motel vouchers for two families with small children who were living in their cars.”
