WELCOME TO OPERATION SANTA

Operation Santa is an annual relief program to provide a Christmas to families in San Diego that cannot afford gifts for their children.  Our goal is to make sure as many of these kids as possible can actually experience a true Christmas by bringing gifts, clothes and food!

There are 3 ways YOU can get involved:

1. Nominate a family in need
2. Gather family/friends/coworkers to adopt a family from us
3. Make a monetary/non-monetary donation to our cause
