Update: 

HO HO HOW AMAZING Y’ALL ARE!! We’re sitting at about $8,200 for the season and our families and friend need about 4-5k more! Santa has been the busiest he’s ever been and y’all have been the most generous ever! What a combo! Please donate and share as soon as possible please. I’d like to give some resources to these families this evening and tomorrow morning so they have time to shop for their kiddos. I have many sweet stories this season, but catching up a mom and 3 kiddos on 4 months of rent and 3-4 months of utilities is a Hallmark movie waiting to happen. If you’ve ever been there, you know how stressful it can be! She’s also “dating” the dad of her children again and they’re celebrating the holidays together! Warms my big, chubby Santa heart! Thanks to everyone for being so generous this season!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Santa

34 YEARS AND COUNTING, if you can believe it! My name is Elliott and my alter ego Santa has been performing, raising funds for friends in need and just having a great time every holiday season. This year is no exception!

Last year, we raised just over $11,000 and with your help we helped our big African family, fixed several furnaces and replaced one entire system, we fixed a single Mom’s suv, delivered lots of turkeys, hams and chickens (for thanksgiving and Christmas) we gave lots of fuel, grocery, and Burlington coat factory gift cards to let families shop for themselves (we're helping a few of the same families and more this year). Some of the best feedback I get every year is how these folks appreciate having a little pride when they take their families shopping for anything. I well up when I write that sentence, because I know what it feels like to not be doing okay. We have their backs and I appreciate y’all having ours!

I thank you all for your generosity and ask you to please give again this year. You don't need to fill out any forms, just donate and let the magic of Santa and his elves take over!

Many of you may have someone who needs a little extra cheer this year; lost a loved one, a family pet, a close friend and who doesn't know someone going through a tough divorce, battle with cancer or other health concern...

Blessings to y'all and here's how to help:

Donate to this GoFundMe, hire me as Santa for any event (starts at $300), I do Zoom or FaceTime appearances as well! We are collecting coats, hats, gloves, socks, underwear, really any warm clothing and other cold weather items. We're also collecting WalMart, Target, Amazon, Visa or any kind of gift cards to help families. If you or anyone you know could use our help or even a quick cheerful call, I'm here for them and you!!

Thank you, in advance for helping many wishes come true this season!!
