Mission Statement
Santa's Children Christmas Village is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting children in crisis to aid in their recovery, especially those with a life-threatening illness or a chronic medical condition, and those in distress because of acute poverty or homelessness. Santa visits homes, hospitals, emergency care facilities, and Santa's Village to bring gifts and encouragement to children. Santa's Children Christmas Village works with fire departments and with other charitable organizations with similar missions to provide gifts, clothing, and wholesome activities for children in crisis, along with their families and caregivers. Santa's Children Christmas Village Santa's Children Christmas Village has two objectives.
Santa's Children Christmas Village is dedicated to supporting children in crisis. We are a tax exempt 501(3)(c) charity designed to support families with special attention to children with serious and terminal illnesses. Santa's Children Christmas Village has been helping Children in Crisis since 1998. As Santa's Children Christmas Village makes its new home in Macedonia, Iowa in 2005, we ask for your help in making the old Macedonia School a Special Place for Special Kids. |

Helping KIDS of Flood and Storm Disasters
Through its local KIDS Program, Santa’s Children Christmas Village (SCCV) of Macedonia, Iowa, has on hand an ample supply of new children’s clothing, toys and books to be distributed free of charge to those who have been devastated by the recent floods and storms in Iowa and Nebraska. SCCV is looking to distribute items as soon as possible in communities affected by the disasters. As a recipient organization, SCCV receives $100 worth of merchandise for every $10 donated to Kids In Distressed Situations (K.I.D.S., Inc.), which secures donations from major manufacturers of children’s clothing, toys and books to be distributed to those in need. To complete distribution of the merchandise to those affected by the floods and storms, SCCV is seeking to partner with individuals and organizations, such as faith groups (churches, synagogues, etc.), businesses, school organizations, social service agencies, local fire departments, or groups of individuals who want to help. Assistance is needed to help fund distribution costs as well as volunteers to help in the process of inventorying and packaging new clothing, toys and books. Distribution to families in need will be handled through local Fire Departments in the communities affected by the floods and storms. Donations of any amount to help cover distribution costs are welcome and can be mailed to Santa’s Children, Box 220, Macedonia, IA, 51549. If you are willing to help in this endeavor by donating or volunteering, contact Santa’s Village at (712) 486-2599, (402) 657-6034, or santa@santaschildren.org.
