SANTA'S HELPERS
PROGRAM
​​
Due to the overwhelming support again this year, we are no longer accepting new helpers for 2023.
Program Details:
​
Each Santa’s Helper will be anonymously assigned a child and will receive a personal wish list from that child that includes personal items like clothing as well as toys.
The foster children participating in this program are ages birth to 12 years of age, and are currently under the care of the Department of Children and Families (DCF) in the Merrimack Valley, including Lawrence, Methuen, Andover, North Andover and the greater Haverhill region. Individuals, groups, or businesses may sign up to sponsor one child or more. Cash donations are accepted in lieu of receiving a Christmas wish list.
