Presbyterian Children's Village in Rosemont is seeking donations this holiday season.

A donor can choose to make a single gift to a child, adopt an entire family that is struggling to survive, or provide something more substantial to a family that needs basic amenities to make a home livable.

The Presbyterian Children’s Village website provides several lists of needed items for children of all ages, infant through teen and young adult.

According to the Village, "Many of the children and families we serve face violence and poverty in their daily lives—challenges that most of us can only imagine. As the economy continues to falter, the need for an outstretched hand to nurture and support our most vulnerable children only increases. By offering necessities and amenities these families cannot provide for themselves, you provide a ray of hope in the face of challenges most of us can only imagine."

Founded as an orphanage in 1877, Presbyterian Children’s Village today is a non-profit agency dedicated to the healing of the spirits of children, families and communities broken by violence, addiction, poverty, mental illness, racism and other serious societal problems. The Village serves more than 5,100 children each year in the greater Philadelphia area.
