Atlanta

Atlanta Housing has become one of our most impactful collaborators. Since our launch in Atlanta, we’ve reached nearly 10,000 children—making it our largest and fastest-growing program. Atlanta Housing’s mission to provide stability and access aligns seamlessly with ours.

Through personalized gifts, we not only brighten the holidays but help fortify communities with warmth, joy, and compassion.

Boston

We expanded to Boston in 2020 in partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston and the Boston Housing Authority. Last year alone, we served 500 families, many facing economic hardship. Our presence in Boston supports our partners’ dedication to equity, opportunity, and youth empowerment. With each letter fulfilled, we help children imagine a future filled with joy, confidence, and possibility.

Chicago

Where it all began. In 2018, we launched Santa for a Day with the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), fulfilling the wishes of over 1,800 children in our very first year. CHA has been a remarkable partner ever since—our shared mission of building stronger families and communities has created a lasting impact. Together, we’ve built more than a program; we’ve built a tradition that continues to lift hearts and inspire hope across Chicago.

Detroit

Since 2019, we’ve teamed up with the Detroit Housing Commission to deliver joy and dignity to over 2,000 children and their families. The DHC’s vision of connected, thriving communities mirrors our own, and together, we use the holiday season to reinforce resilience, lift spirits, and remind families they’re not alone. Every letter answered is a gesture of hope in neighborhoods working toward brighter tomorrows.

Evanston

Our newest city, Evanston, joined in 2023 through a partnership with Family Focus, a beloved local nonprofit rooted in education, family support, and community wellness. Nestled in the hometown of Northwestern University, Evanston has embraced our mission wholeheartedly. With Family Focus, we’re not just delivering gifts—we’re helping children feel seen, supported, and celebrated during one of the most magical times of the year.

Kansas City

In 2021, we brought Santa for a Day to Kansas City, partnering with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City and the Kansas City Housing Authority. With additional support from the Kansas City Royals, we’ve reached more than 2,000 children. This three-way partnership exemplifies the power of collaboration, and together, we create holiday moments filled with excitement, gratitude, and connection.

Milwaukee

Milwaukee joined the Santa for a Day family in 2019 through a partnership with the Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee (HACM). With incredible support from the Green Bay Packers, we’ve reached more than 2,000 children and counting. Our efforts align with HACM’s commitment to enriching lives and building vibrant communities. The Packers’ presence brings added holiday magic—and a sense of hometown pride—to every delivery.

Philadelphia

In Philadelphia, we work hand-in-hand with Mighty Writers, a literacy-focused nonprofit, to reach over 2,000 children since 2020. Because writing is central to our program, this partnership couldn’t be a better fit. Together, we help children strengthen their voices through letter writing—and reward them with gifts that reflect their dreams, their needs, and the belief that their words matter.
