Crossroads of Pella is gearing up for the holiday season.

Director of Crossroads Jim Hibma says their Adopt a Family for Christmas program begins this week. Starting Tuesday, families or individuals living in the Pella Community School district can sign up for assistance with food, clothing, and toys this holiday season through December 9th. Hibma says the Pella Community Toy Shelf is also ready to assist families who need gifts for children and those who would like to donate. Contact Crossroads of Pella or stop by their office inside the Pella Community Center for more information.
