IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE:

If you are in need of assistance and would like your family to be adopted by area residents and/or businesses, you may register for the program by clicking here. Deadline to register is November 16, 2023. No registrations will be taken after this date.

In an effort to assist those most in need in our community, we will register people based on the number of years they have received assistance. Those who have been assisted through the program at least 3 times in the past 5 years will be placed on a waiting list. Determination as to their assistance this year will be made once donors and funds have been received for the program. All who register will be contacted about their acceptance into the program in early December with confirmation of their pick-up time. We try to accommodate all families as much as possible.

Requirements to qualify for this program are:

•   Must be a resident of Romeoville (Romeoville postal address) with a photo I.D. 

•   Proof of current residency must be provided (utility bills, insurance premiums, etc. will be accepted)

•   Proof of age of children being registered (school registration, school report card, birth certificate)

•   Valid Social Security card for all people registering (adults and children)
