S.A.N.T.A. Project Brings Toys to Children In Need

S.A.N.T.A. (Sharing Among Neighbors Toy Appeal) is once again working to brighten the lives of children and their families this holiday season. An annual tradition for over 20 years, the S.A.N.T.A. Project provides families who live in the Fern Ridge School District or the Crow-Applegate-Lorane School District toys, books, stuffed animals, and more to help them fill every child’s wish list. They will also have Christmas trees, bicycles, jackets, stocking stuffers, personal care items, and much more for families in need. Any family who could use help this holiday season can come to the  S.A.N.T.A. giveaway. Proof of need is not required, but families must bring proof that they live in the C-A-L or FRSD School Districts and that their children live with them. Proof can be a license, mail, medical card, etc.

This year’s giveaway will be in the Veneta Elementary School Gym on Saturday, December 17th from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

For those who would like to support the S.A.N.T.A. Project in the great work they do, they are always in need of donations of toys, stocking stuffers, books, etc. Drop off boxes are located throughout the community or items can be brought to the school office. S.A.N.T.A. Project also accepts cash donations.
