I am passionate about helping the children in this area
The Beginning: Over 20 years ago I started by providing one Christmas gift for every child at Stansbury Elementary school. I then added Hillsdale Elementary, Westlake Jr High. The next year I gave 200 complete Christmas' for needy Children. Now my Non-Profit provides for over 2,000. Many deliveries are delivered by the School Counselors. Deliveries run from December 15th and end December 25th.
How they are chosen: The Children we serve are the neediest in the area. They are chosen by teachers who see the child's needs everyday, school counselors, principals and community action groups.
What do we do: The Sharing Team (Sub4Santa) not only provides Christmas Toys for the children, we provide shoes, coats, hats, gloves, new beds (for those sleeping on the floor), books, school supplies and other basic needs.
Recognition: I have received an award from Governor Leavitt with WVC Mayor Wright in attendance, I also have received 2 awards by President George H.W. Bush and President George W Bush for my community service. But I often fly under the radar as an "Angel Donation".
100% goes to the children: I am an Accountant by day and a Community Activist in my spare time.
Where would your donation go: You can let me know what Elementary School, Jr High, High School or area you want your donation to go to. Daily I get calls/ emails requesting more help.
Together we can provide for those without.
Together we can make sure the children that go to our former Elementary, Junior and High Schools have a gift under their tree this Christmas.
Does $1 Dollar make a difference: Yes!

Packets for the Homeless teenagers, men and women that we provided this year
Delivering beds to a school. There are many sleeping on the floor, couch or 4 to one bed. A nice new bed could make all the difference. They will have a good nights rest and thus a productive day.
Delivering items to the needy on the streets
A Junior High got 6 Beds
Several times a year we bring new books to the needy children
