Operation Blue Santa Toy Donation
Toys were collected for Operation Blue Santa at the 100 Club's annual Holiday Party. We thank all of those who participated. Happy holidays!
"Operation Blue Santa is a 501(c)(3) – non-profit, community based corporation, organized by the Austin Police Department, with support from the Texas National Guard, the Austin Fire Department, the Austin Parks and Recreation Department and Austin Energy. Each year we provide each family we serve with a full holiday meal and wrapped Christmas gifts for each child under age 14. Our service to citizens of Austin began back in 1972 serving about 20 families, this year we will easily serve over 3500 families. This is only possible because of the goodwill and big hearts of Austin’s citizens, businesses, and civic groups that support us each year."

Operation Blue Santa
The History
<
"Operation Blue Santa is a 501(c)(3) – non-profit, community based corporation, organized by the Austin Police Department, with support from the Texas National Guard, the Austin Fire Department, the Austin Parks and Recreation Department and Austin Energy. This charitable outreach began in 1972 when two patrol officers realized that some families on the patrol beat would not have gifts or food for their children at Christmas.
Each year we provide each family we serve with a full holiday meal, complete with turkey/chicken and all the trimmings, and wrapped Christmas gifts for each child under age 14. Our service began with about 20 needy families, this year we will easily serve over 3500 families. This is only possible because of the goodwill and big hearts of Austin’s citizens, businesses, and civic groups that support us each year.
Thank you Austin and surrounding communities!"

KVUE and State Farm partner for annual Habitat for Humanity home build
by KVUE News
Posted on November 29, 2010 at 11:58 AM
The Home for the Holidays blitz build is underway. With hammers and hard work, dozens of volunteers are helping to make one family's holiday dream come true.
This is the fourth year KVUE, State Farm and Habitat for Humanity teamed up to build a home for a special family.
The home will soon belong to Jennifer De La Garza and her three young children. The family has been waiting for two years. Since then, Jennifer has put in her share of sweat equity on other Habitat homes.
Habitat helps low-income families secure affordable loans so they can become homeowners. New homeowners pay for their houses and must put in 400 hours of sweat equity on other houses before they can buy a home of their own.
The home will be finished on Dec. 18.
