Now is the time to become a Hillside Special Santa

It’s not too early to begin planning for the holidays. And it’s not too early to become a Hillside Special Santa and help youth and families build better futures.

This holiday season, Hillside Special Santas will help more than 5,900 youth from 4,000 families across New York served by Hillside Family of Agencies.

“Each year, the people that donate new gifts and clothing to Hillside Special Santas are truly reflective of that special human quality that is shown when there are others in need,” says Sally Bohne, Hillside Special Santas manager, noting that now is the time to make a difference in the lives of these children and families.

Bohne, along with all of the members of the Hillside Special Santas staff, encourage individuals, families, students, community groups, businesses, religious organizations, and all others to consider joining in the fun and becoming Hillside Special Santas this year to help make the holiday season brighter for local youth and their families that are in need.

As our needs continue to grow, your support becomes even more valuable,” says Sally.
