Volunteers needed to assist Anon. Santa program
Posted: 11/22/06
Anonymous Santa is a charitable non-profit corporation dedicated to providing ìChristmas With Dignityî to children from families in crisis throughout the Chisago County and Forest Lake area.
The ìChristmas With Dignityî program offers parents who are not able to buy presents for their children, an opportunity to ìshopî in a Holiday Store set up in United Methodist Church of North Branch.
Anonymous Santa is an all volunteer project with 100 percent of the funds generated spent on gifts. There are no paid employees and no funding is received from any governmental agency.
Your help is needed and there are many ways to get involved:
ï You may donate money for the project. Make checks payable to Anonymous Santa and send to P.O. Box 901, North Branch, MN 55056.
ï Sponsor an activity or event, host a Toy Collection/Drop-off Site, Giving Tree or provide a location for our Counter Coin tubes.
ïVolunteer your time: Pickup donations, shop and sort gifts, set up Holiday Store.
ï Your office, classroom or organization can purchase gifts.
ï Provide: Printing, postage, Christmas cookies, gift wrap
Through the holidays Anonymous Santa continues to provide gifts for families that missed the program or were referred after the deadline.
