A Facebook Group is connecting community members with high school seniors as they get ready for life after high school. There's a few days left to adopt a soon-to-be graduate.
The Salvation Army Santa Clarita Valley Corps is asking the community to consider taking part in their Adopt a Family and Adopt a Senior Programs this holiday season.

The purpose of the page is to shower local high school seniors with a little extra love and encouragement as they take their next steps in life.
Katelyn Malveaux was one of the many seniors who missed out on many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities last year due to the pandemic.
She became one of the 2,000 seniors to be adopted through the program. It gave me encouragement and it gave me hope about everything, said Malveaux. One girl gave me money. Another one came to my house and dropped off a basket filled with lovely treats! I really loved all of it!
