Dear Santa


When: October - December 2025

Where: Drop-off arranged individually


In 2024, the McNabb Center’s Dear Santa program was able to provide Christmas wish lists for 1,249 children who had the most need receiving our services! Thank you to the 928 community sponsors who gave their time and money to bring some extra holiday cheer to our clients by providing these gifts! The Center wouldn’t be able to make this happen without you. Thanks again for your support!


For more than 20 years, the Center has provided holiday gifts for children up to 18 years of age through the Dear Santa program. Children in need served by the Center and their siblings receive donated gifts. Last year, the Center provided gifts and holiday parties to nearly 2,300 East Tennessee children and families in need. This was made possible by individuals and organizations in the community who participate as a sponsor in the Dear Santa program.

Sign-ups for sponsoring of the 2025 Dear Santa program will open in September. Please reach out to Amy.Feelhoelter@mcnabb.org if you have any questions.
