Review for Believe in Santa Foundation, Inc., Ocala, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As soon as I saw the devastation caused by Hurricane Ian I started looking for ways to help. I saw a news story on a local television station about the Believe in Santa Foundation preparing to visit the hardest hit areas in the State of Florida with gifts for children of all ages who lost everything. They would be distributed by Santa Claus from the organization. I knew immediately that this was something I wanted to be a part of.

I called several of my friends to have them join me and then we contacted this nonprofit. In no time we had all the paperwork submitted, went through a criminal background check, and completed a volunteer orientation. Once everything was done, we were assigned to tasks that met our interests.

We will be joining this crew on the month long trip to the hardest hit parts of the state starting this week, and although I expect to see things I've never seen in person before as far as a disaster goes, I also expect to see lots of smiles on the faces of children and their parents.

I'm so happy I found this organization and so happy I can help in some small way.
