Every holiday season, the Blue Santa program purchases and delivers non-perishable food, gifts and hygiene products for disabled, shut-in and elderly community members who need a little extra holiday cheer. The generosity of the Estes Valley community makes this possible and brings a smile to those in need.
On Dec. 9, 2023, Blue Santa made 92 deliveries to community members. In addition to non-perishable food, hygiene products and gift certificates to local businesses, each recipient received handmade items donated by community members. The Blue Santa team enjoyed stopping by and wishing each recipient a happy holiday.
Blue Santa would like to thank the following businesses that allowed us to place donation jars at their locations: Animal Medical Center, Bank of Colorado, Bank of Estes Park (Hwy 7), Bart’s Liquors, Cowlick Hair Saloon, Estes Park Mountain Shop, Longhorn Liquors, Mountain Dew Liquors, Premier Members Credit Union, Park Supply, Rocky Mountain Discount Liquors, and Rocky Mountain Pharmacy.
Blue Santa is made possible through generous donations from the Estes Park community. If you would like to help with this worthwhile project, you can send your monetary donation to Blue Santa Program, c/o Estes Park Police Auxiliary, PO Box 1287, Estes Park, CO 80517. All donations fund items for Blue Santa recipients.
