Dear Santa Shoppers,
Thank you for joining Santa Claus Fund this season to bring joy to so many local children on Christmas morning.
Christmas 2024 is around the corner and Santa Fund needs your holiday cheer. As always, we encourage volunteer shoppers to help fulfill the Christmas wishes of hundreds of local children. Many local merchants provide discounts and allow registered shoppers to charge purchases directly to Santa Fund’s tab, and any out-of-pocket expenses are reimbursed. We made a few changes to our procedures this year so please ensure you read the following information carefully.
Interested in volunteering for the first time? We always encourage locals to join our efforts each year. Please read the following information and email your interest to Santa Fund prior to this year’s deadline. We also recommend that first-time shoppers attend the annual shopper meeting to learn more.
