The Alabama Department of Human Resources, together with many supporting organizations, provides limited assistance with holiday gifts, but only for kids in DHR custody. More than half of the children involved in CASA’s Family Court cases are not in DHR custody, and these children are often left out during the holiday season because their guardians are often unable to afford this extra expense.
A gift registry is available to view online (Blazer ID and password are required). Click the child’s name to see the specific gifts requested on the wish list; to claim a gift, click the name of the gift an enter your name, email address and telephone number.
All gifts must be received—unwrapped and labelled with the child’s name—by Friday, Dec. 16. Gifts can be dropped off at the UAB Collat School of Business between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. on the following dates:
- Thursday, Dec. 1
- Friday, Dec. 2
- Wednesday, Dec. 7
- Thursday, Dec. 8
- Thursday, Dec. 15
- Friday, Dec. 16
