Be a Special Santa in 2024!
Your support of our annual toy-and-gift drive will make the holidays brighter for thousands of youth and families served by Hillside. The official Special Santa season begins November 4, but there are plenty of ways to get involved today—you’ll make an important difference!
Sponsorships are available at different levels to work within your budget! Click here for more details. For additional information, please contact us at ssanta@hillside.com.
For every $50 donated, you’ll make the holidays brighter for one child. Donate today to ensure that participating youth receive their gifts in time for the holidays.
Hillside will create a giving page specific to your business or family. Funds raised will be used to purchase gifts for youth and families in our programs! For details, contact us at ssanta@hillside.com.
