Central Ohio · 501(c)(3) nonprofit
The need exists all year. So does our mission.
Real Deal Santa Claus provides new toys, blankets, diapers, wipes and hygiene products to children and families living in local shelters — year-round.
Supporting families year-round
Something special to call their own.
Families entering shelters may arrive with few belongings and immediate needs. We work directly with community partners to understand their needs and provide the right items at the right time — diapers and wipes for young children, blankets and personal-care products for residents, or toys and gifts for birthdays and the holidays.
Whether you donate items, make a financial contribution, host a drive, or support one of our events — won't you join us and become a Real Deal Santa Claus too?
