Columbia Athletics is collecting gift cards for its annual Adopt-a-Family Program which has provided hundreds of local families with holiday gifts and clothing over the past 15 years.

Every December, teachers, staff and students from throughout the East Greenbush Central School District purchase gifts for families in need. Gift cards are also given to those families to help pay for necessities.

If you would like to donate gift cards through the Adopt-a-Family Program, please drop the cards off at Columbia High School by December 16. Suggested gift cards include:

• Grocery Stores
• Target
• Walmart
• Stewart’s

Please contact Audra Di Bacco (DiBaccAu@egcsd.org) or Natalie Young (YoungNa@egcsd.org) with any questions.

Thank you for your generosity!
