Since 2020, holiday celebrations have looked a little different here at New Moms. For four years now, Operation Santa has allowed New Moms’ holiday gift program to grow stronger, better support families, and involve more people, fostering the strong CONNECTION to our community that is integral to our mission and vision. This year, over 80 volunteers participated in Operation Santa, with ages ranging from 10 to mid-70s. We watched as multiple generations, as well as families and businesses, came together to surround our families with LOVE and to create lasting memories together.
Operation Santa experienced another record-breaking year in gift donations. This year, we received more gifts after the registry closed, so you generously donated a total of 2,395 total gifts.
We want to sincerely thank everyone who participated in Operation Santa. Volunteers, donors, and supporters like you help champion what is most important this holiday season: love, connection, and the endless possibility of young families in our programs to create a bright future in the new year. We wish you a healthy and happy holiday season!
