4th Annual Santa’s Workshop

December 7 from 2 PM to 5 PM

at Heart of Longmont

Accepting gift donations November 24 to December 5!

Volunteers Needed!

The count down to one of our biggest events of the year has begun and Santa needs YOUR help!

Wesley Hall is filling up with gifts for children, moms, dads, teens, and grandparents but you still have time to drop off new or gently used gifts that you would feel comfortable giving as a gift to a loved one. (No clothing, decorations, or household goods, please! This is not a garage sale and kids will not pick these as gifts.) We also need wrapping paper, tape, and gift bags! You can also donate money towards the event. Every little bit helps bring Christmas joy and smiles to the kids’ faces!

There are a few more volunteer slots available so don’t miss out on all the fun! Click here to sign up to help on Sunday, December 7, from 2 PM to 5 PM. We need help organizing donated gifts and setting up the workshop for kids to shop at, wrapping gifts, being a personal shopper for the kids, making cookies, serving snacks, helping with crafts, cleaning up, and so much more! We are also always looking for Spanish speakers to help with translation!

Contact Tricia Grafelman to learn more or if you have questions. Thank you to all who have helped make this event the highlight of the holiday for SO many families in need!
