The Urban League of Greater Oklahoma City, Inc. has a long-standing history of developing and implementing programs that engage and empower the community, and the Christmas season is no exception. We have adopted families of all sizes for nearly two decades, where a genuine need has presented itself and relieved the significant seasonal burden. Despite the unforeseen challenges brought about by Covid-19, our Adopt-a-Family program reached new heights during the 2020 Christmas season, adopting 13 families – our most ever!
