‘Santa Shop’ benefits North Fulton families, kids

Thanks to hundreds of organizations, businesses and individuals that held toy and gift card drives, North Fulton Community Charities reports it was able to serve 627 families and 1,476 children with its Santa Shop and Sponsored Family Program.

NFCC decorated space donated by Hubert Realty Co. as a toy store for children, with special areas for sporting goods, games, gift cards and stocking stuffers. Families camped out overnight to be first in line, and 500 volunteers helped to coordinate and execute the programs, the organization said.
