The Santa Foundation in Franklin allows people to sponsor entire families, volunteer, or just donate a singular gift. Communities across Massachusetts show up for the families in need who may struggle to make ends meet during the holiday season. They believe that on Christmas day "these families should be like every other family."
"We get so many gifts from the community. So we have giving trees out in the community as well as some of the police departments and fire departments will support us and then we can help direct those gifts to the kids who aren't going to get anything otherwise," one of the directors of the Santa Foundation Joe Formosa said.
