Home for the Holidays: A Heartwarming Celebration of Children Finding Their Forever Homes

Our Home for the Holidays event, held on Friday, December 13, 2024 at the Ocala Courthouse, was an unforgettable celebration filled with love, joy, and new beginnings! A total of 18 children officially found their forever homes, with 13 incredible families coming together to mark this life-changing milestone.

The ceremony, presided over by Judge Stacey Youmans, was a heartwarming moment for all involved. To make the day even more special, Santa and Mrs. Claus made a surprise appearance, presenting each family with a certificate of adoption and a personalized ornament as keepsakes.

The celebration continued with a small after party that featured photos with Santa, gifts, and delicious cookies baked by our amazing Kids Central staff!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated and supported this event. Your generosity made this special day possible, and we are beyond grateful to the staff who worked tirelessly to create such a magical experience for all involved. What a wonderful way to celebrate the spirit of family and the holidays!
