Help needy children at Christmas by donating to Operation Letters To Santa.

We wish to extend very special thanks to everybody who donated to Operation Letters To Santa during the 2008 Christmas season. Your generosity allowed us to answer letters to Santa from many children and families in need. Your donations purchased warm clothing; mainly coats, scarves and mittens, small toys and stocking stuffers for each child's Christmas stocking. We thank you!

There are many ways that you can become involved in Operation Santa Claus. Anyone can participate -- individuals, families, groups of co-workers, congregations, businesses, civic organizations, etc. You can obtain letters through the United States Post Office and fulfill a child's, or children's holiday wish list by sending them toys, warm clothing or gift cards. Remember that you are responsible for all shipping costs. Please see our tips page here.

If you do not have time to shop, have a limited budget or other concerns, your tax deductible donation will allow us to do the shopping, gift wrapping and shipping in your stead. Please consider a contribution of any amount as this helps us to bring Christmas to more children each year. All donations are used to purchase gifts such as warm clothing, toys, personal care items, school needs, gift wrap, gift cards and pay for shipping.
