Our Story:
In 2021, our founder The Honorable Auon’tai Anderson received a call from brother jeff of the brother jeff Cultural Center asking for a “Black Santa” to support a local toy giveaway sponsored by Montbello Walks. With only a red Nike sweatsuit, Auon’tai headed to Party City to find a Santa beard and hat. Organically at the same time, Ms. Pam Jiner (Montbello Walks) needed to find a home for all of the excess toys she had in stock. Little did we know, this simple act would blossom into an annual event and birth The Black Santa Project.
Since 2021 we have distributed over 30,000 toys to children in the Denver-Metro area.
Our Family is so extremely blessed and thankful that you guys chose our family for a special gift. We can't express how much we truly appreciate it. This holiday season has been really stressful for us and we were really struggling to get our children what they wanted for Christmas but thanks to you guys and your organization we were able to fulfill our kids wishes, so thank you very much for that. Our three kids were so excited to open their gifts on Christmas morning! We just can't express our gratitude to you guys for everything you did for us.
Thank you very much from the Hunter Family!"
