Letters to Santa, now celebrating its 21st year, is a holiday assistance program sponsored by the Rappahannock Area Chapter. Last year 765 local children received new toys and a winter coat through the program.  Children one to twelve years of age, with their parents’ help, submit applications and letters via Social Services and Head Start.  Then the letters are placed in binders ready for community members to choose a child to sponsor for the holidays.

The support of the community is crucial to the success of Letters to Santa! Individuals, community groups, and businesses have the opportunity to sponsor a child or children. For those who would like to help but are unable to sponsor a child, the program also accepts support through financial contributions and donations of new unwrapped toys.

We hope you will join the team of great Santas! If you would like to be a sponsor, please visit one of our adoption sites. Can’t come in? Just give us a call at (540) 735-0500. We can work with you by phone or fax. Your help will truly make a difference for a child this year!
