The Santa Project

The Santa Project The Santa Project is a 501(c)(3) with a mission to bring the magic of Santa to children who may otherwise not experience it.

We serve the Billings, MT community by providing filled Christmas stockings to guardians for delivery to children from Santa.

We are still feeling so grateful after another incredible Santa Project in 2025. Because of this community, hundreds of children experienced joy, magic, and a little extra love this holiday season. Thank you to every donor, volunteer, and supporter who helped make this year such a success. ❤️
As we look ahead to next year, a quick tip. After Christmas sales are a great time to snag 20 inch stockings. Felt or other sturdy materials work perfectly, and they are often deeply discounted in stores or online. If you happen to spot some while you are out and about, keep Santa Project in mind!
I will share a few photos as examples. Thank you for continuing to support this work and these kids year after year. 🎄✨

We're thrilled to announce that we exceeded our stocking goal for the second year in a row! We aimed to fill 300 stockings and ended up providing 317. We partnered with 5 organizations and worked directly with numerous parents/guardians. We couldn't have done it without the support and kindness of our community and each of you. Whether you donated, volunteered, or spread the word, you helped make Santa's magic real for many children this Christmas.

To the families we were able to help, we hope your children continue to believe in the magic of Santa. If you feel inclined to privately share photos of the stockings and child we would love to see them!

Watching this come together was full of joy, gratitude, and holiday magic.
Because of this generous and wonderful community, so many children will experience a bit more joy this Christmas!

Another message from a grateful parent came through, and it is a wonderful reminder of why the Santa Project exists. This work is about showing up for children in our community and making sure they feel joy from the magic of Santa during the holidays. We are deeply thankful to everyone who helps make moments like this possible. 🎅

"Thank you so very much for the Christmas stocking for my daughter. This year has been a very tough year. If it wasn't for organizations like this my daughter would not have anything for Christmas this year. Again thank you so very much for helping make my daughter's Christmas a happy one. ❤️

Again thank you to everyone for making this happen and bringing joy to kids on Christmas Day. It brings me to tears that you guys are doing such a wonderful thing for all the kids ❤️"

Messages like this gently remind us why we created the Santa Project 🥰

A former recipient recently shared with us:

“Hello I am requesting 2 stockings. We are a foster kinship family and we weren't able to get much this year. We are struggling to pay the rent. I hate to choose between the house and little things that bring my girls so much joy. We got stockings last year and they loved them. The thoughtfulness put into those stockings was amazing and made for a very happy day. I was just wondering if we could be considered for stockings this year. Thank you."

This is our "why". ♥️

The Santa Project is about supporting parents and guardians, while bringing joy and magic to children on Christmas morning. Every single stocking makes such a big impact on these families.

Thank you to everyone who helps bring this kindness to life!

Thanks to St. Vincent Regional Hospital for sharing our story!

With the help of our community, we filled approximately 280 stockings last weekend and are on track to give 300+. 💚❤️

A couple of weeks ago Trey and Hadley’s mom let us know that they each wanted to donate a stocking to a child using their own money. This is the second year they have done this. We are so glad they were able to join us Saturday and not only fill their donated stocking, but help fill many others too.

In total we had 4 kids helping us fill stockings this weeend. It was a little extra special to see them joining us in ensuring their peers would get Santa. We think these kids are pretty wonderful! 💚

Thank you to everyone who makes The Santa Project possible. Today was truly special ♥️ Because of our generous donors and the amazing volunteers who showed up with their time and Christmas cheer, we were able to fill about 280 stockings.

Your kindness, laughter, and energy made the whole room feel joyful. And thanks to all of you, hundreds of children across Billings will wake up to a stocking on Christmas morning.

We are deeply grateful for your support and the magic you help create for our community!!

We have heard from many of you that you love knowing what we still need for our holiday stockings, and we are so grateful for the support. A few of the items on our list are showing up in awesome pre holiday sales, so we wanted to share some ideas! I will attach a few pictures for inspiration, and I will drop direct links in the comments for anyone who wants quick access. Feel free to shop around anywhere that works best for you!

Thank you for helping us get closer to our goal of supporting 300 local children this Christmas. Your kindness brings the Magic of Santa to life for kiddos in our community, and we appreciate you more than you know.
