Ft. Riley’s Operation Santa Claus
We assist active duty military families who may be facing financial difficulties by providing toys or gift cards for children from birth to age 18.
How Op Santa Works
Military Personnel and their families only are able to participate in this program.
Eligible Soldiers and their Family members can apply through their unit’s First Sergeants.
The First Sergeants then notify us of how many families will be partaking in the program.
Once approved by the First Sergeants, eligible Soldiers then will be called to make an appointment to visit Santa’s workshop.
Soldiers and their families will get an email notification once the appointment is made.
Show up at the scheduled time and date to pick up your toys and other Christmas gifts.
*Note: We will notify the unit’s leadership in the case of a no-show or missed appointment.
