Santa Project
Luke19 will be the operating arm of the Santa Project. The Santa Project has been in our community for many years. With God's most gracious help, local businesses, churches, organizations and people have come together to provide Christmas gifts and food to local families. Families are nominated by our local elves. The families can be nominated for financial or spiritual reasons.

The Santa project hosted by Luke19 has been giving children Christmas for over 8 years in the Canal Fulton area. The families are interviewed, and the children receive a want, a need, and an outfit to return to school. We love to have community partners and volunteers.
Nov. 9th tags are available. Each tag represents a need, want or clothing for a family member. We will have tags available at locations in the community. If you are a business, church, organization or individual that would like to offer tags to your customers, family, or friends, please contact Jackie at [email protected]. If you don’t like to shop we understand, you can still sponsor a child and let our shoppers do the work. Go to https://www.luke19.org/donations.html to make a donation for a child’s gift.
Dec. 13th all gifts are to be returned to SS Philip and James UNWRAPPED with the tag attached securely. SS Philip and James graciously allows use of the school gym for the Santa Project.
Dec. 14th Sorting Day at SS Philip and James school gym 532 High St.- begins at 8:30 am. We need volunteers to setup tables and begin the sorting of the hundreds of gifts. Students may help until all the gifts are sorted.
Dec.15th Wrapping Day – Volunteers are needed to wrap all the gifts. Wrapping begins at 11AM – Lunch is provided. – The day ends when all gifts are wrapped. You can volunteer all day or just an hour we appreciate all help. We do ask that no children from the Northwest or RG Drage school districts assist as we wish to keep our families anonymous.
Dec. 21st Family Pick up Day – Volunteers are needed at 7 am to setup tables, sort the wrapped gifts, sort and bag all the food. Pickup begins promptly at 10 am. Children can help until 9:45 am.
The Canal Fulton area, businesses, churches, organizations and community members have been amazing and generous contributors these past 8 years. We are truly grateful and blessed by your on going support.
