Operation Santa Claus

Operation Santa Claus is an annual holiday program that delivers more than 400 gift bags to adults with chronic mental health conditions who are either homeless or living in supported housing. Each year, we partner with individuals as well as donation hosts, who collect material and monetary donations through their organizations, such as scouting groups, businesses, civic groups, and faith-based organizations. Our gift bags are full of health and hygiene products and small items of comfort or enjoyment that many may struggle to afford, especially at the holidays. 

Many Ways to Give

You or your organization can help make Operation Santa Claus a success in one of a number of ways. You could click the button below to view our Amazon wish list and either pick up a few items in your own holiday shopping or send them directly from Amazon. New and unwrapped items delivered in person should be dropped off during business hours at 130 Industrial Dr, Suite B in Greenville. We also invite you to click below to make direct donations designated to Operation Santa Claus to help us cover items not purchased. Or if your group or workplace would like to serve as a donation host or inquire about other ways to support the donation drive, contact Vanessa Vestergaard at 864-467-3344 Ext. 1104 or Vanessa.Vestergaard@mhagc.org
