Hello Santa's Helper!
The holiday season is just around the corner and we are hoping that you will once again help a child in need through the Chicago Sun-Times Season of Sharing program. We plan to serve more than 16,000 Chicago area children this year through "Letters to Santa" and we need generous Santas like you to make holiday wishes come true.
With your help, the Letters to Santa program provided holiday gifts to 19,660 low-income children from 117 schools, shelters and other nonprofit organizations throughout the Chicago area last year. Cash donations to the Empty Stocking Fund enabled us to provide $87,860 to schools and organizations to purchase holiday gifts for 4,393 kids.
Just like last year, we ask that you spend about $25 to fulfill a child's holiday wishes. Please go to
www.suntimes.com/santa to request a child's "Letter to Santa" or to make a donation to the Empty Stocking Fund. If you have any questions, send us an e-mail at
elves@suntimes.com or call us at (773) 890-7373.
Thank you for all you do and have a very happy holiday season!!
Warm regards,
Amy Cornell
Season of Sharing Coordinator
