Thank You!!

We want to say thanks to everyone who donated both gifts and money. Your gracious donations allowed Surrogate Santa to provide a wonderful Christmas to well over our initial 12 families. Everyone got new shirts, pants, shoes, jewelry, and lots of toys as well as footballs, rubber balls and a great bmx no rules bicycle. We even had enough donations left to provide clothing and additional gifts to other families.

Also it was great to have everyone's support at the wrapping party. Everyone came and we completely wrapped all presents, loaded them in the sleigh and cleaned up the gym in just over an hour!! We are so appreciative of everyone and we know the recipients will never forget this Christmas and what you have provided. We hope you will remember this Christmas as well - we know we will.

Thank you and have a Merry Christmas!!

Please make sure you enter on the North side of the gym and sign up on our register list so we can keep track of the hours donated to help wrap these presents. There will be treats, of course, for you to enjoy so come and wrap with us and bring the whole family.

See you tonight!!

Reminder..

Just a reminder to everyone out there, today is the LAST day to drop off gifts. We are accepting them until 8pm this evening. 

If you haven't had a chance to donate and still want to help, you can come to our wrapping party TOMORROW evening at 7pm at the gym. {edgewood ward building}. We will be wrapping and labeling gifts, and of course there will be goodies to share. Hope to see you all there!!

Donations Questions

We have had a few questions about donations. One of the questions was how do you let us know that you wanted to take a family or individual. You can either comment on the blog or email us and let us know who you would like to take. 

As for monetary donations, if you do decide to do this and pay with a check please make it out to Ron Tanner, this way we can cash this check and use it toward this project. You can mark this as a charitable donation on your taxes if you would like. 

You can donate gift wrap and ribbon and bows or tags if you would like, we do need this as well. 

Thanks for being apart of this wonderful project, we are so grateful for your help!!

Welcome!

Hello! 

This blog is all about my eagle project. I decided after having the chance to do a sub-for-santa project when I was younger with my family and fellow ward members for a family in need. This project touched my heart deeply and I have always felt that this experience helped me understand what the true meaning of christmas really was. So I decided to help other families for my eagle project. 

We are accepting presents from the list, this can be found on the 'What we NEED' tab at the top of the blog or click here, or monetary donations and we will purchase what we still need. We also will be in need of helping hands to wrap gifts when we have them all collected. 

All your donations need to be to us by December 20th by 8pm. We will be wrapping presents on December 21st at our church house {3511 N 180 E, PROVO, UTAH, 84604}. 

We hope you will be willing to help us give families a Christmas this year!

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
