This year we are donating to the 2019 Santa Claus Incorporated event. The event will be held at the San Bernardino Orange Show. We had a lot of fun attending in 2018 and look forward to this year's charity drive.
Legacy Photography & Design will be donating a gift certificate, $1700.00 value, for this event.
Contact Santa Claus Incorporated for more details and sign up for a seat at the gala. This is a great way to celebrate the season of giving and the upcoming new year. Let's welcome 2020 by thinking of others!
THE BEGINNING OF FRIENDS
Formal fundraising for Santa Claus, Inc. began in 1952, with the first Christmas Tree Lane event being hosted in 1962. In recent years the increased need for services necessitated the creation of a separate non-profit corporation whose sole purpose is to focus on fundraising.
In September, 2013, Friends of Santa Claus, Inc. was formed to facilitate fundraising needs.
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 2019
CHRISTMAS TREE LANE GALA
Each year Friends of Santa Claus, Inc. hosts the Christmas Tree Lane events which consist of a Black Tie dinner/dance gala on Friday evening and a luncheon and fashion show on Saturday.
The 2019 Christmas Tree Lane event will be held Friday, December 6 & Saturday, December 7, 2019 at the National Orange Show, Orange Pavilion, San Bernardino, CA.
Prepare to be swept away by the most dazzling holiday spectacle south of the North Pole.
Enjoy our perfectly curated menu, silent and live auction opportunities, custom designed trees and live entertainment by Matt Mauser and the Sinatra Band to dance the night away.
The night will be filled with holiday joy as we come together to raise funds for our underprivileged children of San Bernardino and surrounding counties.
Planning for the December event begins in February of each year. Both cash sponsorships as well as in-kind donations for the event are welcome.
You may want to think about holding your annual Christmas Party at our event. The cost will include dinner for your group as well as music, dancing and entertainment AND a portion of the cost is tax deductible. We handle the decorations, the entertainment and food for you. No planning required on your part and you know you have supported an amazing charitable organization. A win, win for all.
For reservations, please call (800) 825-3908
