Hays County Brown Santa Looking For Christmas Elves

The Hays County Brown Santa program has started its annual drive for money, food, and toys to assist families in need in Hays County. The program consists of volunteers from the Hays County Sheriff’s Office and members of the community. 

 

Brown Santa seeks donations from citizens and local businesses for toys, canned goods and money. Last year over 550 families were given assistance in food and/or toys in Hays County.       

 

Brown Santa is accepting new toys for children up to the age of 16. Any toy that is already gift-wrapped needs to have a tag that identifies the toy, age group, and if it is for a male or female. Toys can also be picked up from your residence or business if convenient. 

 

Money contributions in the form of a check or money order made payable to “Brown Santa” can be mailed to

 

  • Brown Santa – P.O. Box 1475 – San Marcos, TX  78667

 

The deadline for accepting unwrapped toys will be December 9, 2016 and for wrapped toys December 12, 2016. All toys will be wrapped on December 10,  2016 from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon. Children are welcome in the warehouse to help out! 

 

Deputies and helpers will be delivering the toys and food on Saturday December 17, 2016 from 7:00 am until approximately 12:00 noon.  Any family requesting assistance from Brown Santa can sign up in the lobby of the Sheriff’s Office or at one of the locations below. 

 

The deadline for accepting applications will be December 8, 2016 at 5:00 pm. Those interested in assisting in the Brown Santa program or making a cash donation may contact Lieutenant Dennis Gutierrez at 512-393-7877. 

 

Brown Santa would like to wish the citizens of Hays County a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
