Dear Santa


When: October - December 2024

Where: Drop-off arranged individually


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 to sponsor a child in 2024 are open, fill out the sign-up form below. Wish lists will be distributed in late October.
