It is that time of year again, when the UNMC community reaches out to help families facing challenges as the holidays approach.<\/p>\n

This year UNMC will partner with The Nebraska Medical Center to adopt families we serve at the hospital and UNMC. <\/p>\n

To apply:<\/b><\/p>\n

The Nebraska Medical Center’s social work department soon will identify those families in need of assistance this year. If you want to adopt a family, download, complete and return this form<\/a> by the end of the day today<\/b> to allow adequate time to match you with a family and give your department time to prepare your donation.<\/p>\n

Once approved, the development office will send your department’s information to the social work office. Social work will match you with a family and provide a wish list, with ages and sizes.
