Santa Claus Gift Drive Keeps Grass Valley Cheerful
In Grass Valley California a perpetual Santa tradition has grown from Mrs. Hansen’s idea. Each year on donation day every one of the town’s 1,000 plus students brings a gift to share with those in need. The program runs from the last day of school, supported by a volunteer committee that distributes items where most needed. The idea has continued for 25 years, outlasting its founder.
