Be Someone's Santa (SCIO)

About

Be Someone’s Santa SCIO is a Scottish charity dedicated to ensuring that children and young people living in poverty experience the joy, dignity and excitement of Christmas. We support families who are struggling financially and who may otherwise be unable to provide gifts or festive essentials for their children. We do this by working in partnership with schools, social workers, health professionals and community organisations who identify families most in need. Through donations from individuals, businesses and volunteers, we provide new toys, gifts, books and essentials that are age-appropriate and chosen with care. Our aim is not only to relieve financial pressure, but to bring happiness, hope and a sense of being cared for at what can be a very difficult time of year.
