Secret Santa’s fulfilling a Child’s Santa Wishlists

Holiday Hugs matches a child or family in need with a Secret Santa to make a child’s wishes come true. A Secret Santa may be an individual, family, group of co-workers, or an entire business, who is willing to sponsor a family, or families, by purchasing items from their wish list. You can ensure they have a very special holiday.
We are grateful for the generosity of over 40 Secret Santa’s helping over 110 children and their caregivers.
Thank you to this year’s sponsors, TARGET, Books a Million, and American Legion Post 10.
