Each child’s wish list is between $50 - $125, so your budget determines the size of family you can “adopt.”

If you missed the October 30th deadline and you still want to participate - email development@ucpcfl.org!

We will pair you with a UCP family whose needs fit your budget. You will be provided with the ages & genders of family members as well as a buying guide to ensure families receive appropriate gifts!


STEP 4: GO SHOPPING


STEP 5: DROP OFF YOUR GIFTS FROM DECEMBER 2-6 

Drop off your gifts at UCP BAILES EARLY CHILDHOOD  ACADEMY at 12702 Science Dr.  Orlando, FL, 32826.

Please do not wrap your gifts. You may donate gift-wrapping supplies with your donations, but it is easier to track the donations if they are not wrapped. 


 ADDITIONAL HOLIDAY SUPPORT

    Host a toy drive to supply children with gifts over the holidays! UCP has the greatest need for sensory toys and games & gifts for teenagers (both boys and girls). Find our list of greatest need HERE.
