Every year Sanpete Sub for Santa and Sanpete Toys for Tots helps nearly 1000 Sanpete kids! The need is always great and local businesses, groups and individuals have been very generous to help fulfill the needs of Sanpete’s underprivileged children and youth. 

Sub-for-Santa is getting an earlier start this year. Applications are already out in area banks, stores and even a few restaurants!  (APPLICATIONS FOR ASSISTANCE MUST BE TURNED IN BY DECEMBER 1st, 2014.)   You will also find donation boxes in many area locations. 

Requests will be fulfilled by December 13th and applicants will have TWO pick up times from which to choose –

Saturday, December 13th from 10-4 and
Thursday, December 18th 2-8pm

PICK UP LOCATION – Snow College West Campus – former auto body shop located at 300 W. 100N. 

Exciting news, for the second year the Marine Corps Toys-for-Tots program has qualified and invited the Sanpete County Humanitarian Council (SCHC) to be a partner in this wonderful Nationwide program. All toys donated here will stay in Sanpete and will be distributed through our local Toys-for-Tots program, administered by the SCHC. The result is much the same (Sanpete kids in need get the toys you donate) PLUS, Toys-for-Tots sends hundreds of donated toys to our distribution center and provides an improved distribution, accounting and reporting system for us to follow.

Because of our partnership with the Toys-for-Tots program and their guidelines, Sanpete kids will be receiving a bit more help than in the past. Those who are served through the Toys-for-Tots program will get one toy (approx $15-$25 value), a book/toy (approx. $10-$15 value) and one stocking-stuffer ($5 value). Your help is desperately needed to help each child and youth receive these gifts.

There are also many families whose greatest need – and only request – is warm winter clothing, coats, boots, underwear, etc. All of these items must come through the Sanpete Sub-for-Santa program. Toys-for-Tots generously donates about half the toys needed for our area but does not donate clothing. Cash or gift card donations would help greatly to get the clothing and sizes requested.
