Annual Santa Toy Drive

---

Each year, the Charitable Fund is proud to partner with the Augusta Regional Airport, Augusta Partnership for Children, and Tuttle-Newton Home to facilitate a memorable community Christmas event—the Santa Fly-In. 

With the assistance of Augusta Partnership for Children and Tuttle-Newton Home, 64 families, comprising 186 children, were invited to the Augusta Regional Airport for a festive Christmas party! The Grinch, Cindy Lou Who, and other beloved characters joined in on the fun as the kids danced, created crafts, jumped in bouncy houses, and relished a Christmas morning breakfast. The excitement peaked as the children gathered on the tarmac to greet Santa, who made a grand entrance aboard a Georgia State Patrol helicopter. Santa joyfully handed each family bags filled with wrapped gifts from the holiday gift drive, specifically purchased from the children's wish lists. Additionally, Faith Outreach Church was present to provide each family with a delightful Christmas meal.
