Families in need will once again benefit from Operation Santa this holiday season with the organization is gearing up for another season of handing out food and gift hampers.

You don’t have to have children to be considered a family-in-need.

Unhoused people will be provided with hampers too, filled with goods better suited to their needs.

To get involved, you can donate cash, volunteer, sponsor a hamper or adopt a family. For more information, visit the Operation Santa Facebook page.

After all the goods are collected, Santa and an elf deliver the hampers to families in need.

We had the chance to talk with co-chair’s Shirley Greyeyes and Lillian Denton:
