Hi there Chuck!!? So we have not done this for a fundraising effort, but I think it’s a great idea!!!? We did a Winter Wonderland, where we invited community members and local schools to bring their kids for a fun day!? Each child received a small gift (baseball, stuffed animal, puzzle) and then we had a whole bunch of different activities.? We always did pictures with Santa, some crafts that the kids could take with them, donuts and bagels, had cartoons on, and then some type of games and inflatable/bounce.? It was always a hit!!? Let me know if you need any other information!

Has anyone done a Pictures with Santa event for the community to raise donations for the Student Union or for a community non profit?

We have Santa attend our annual Holiday Market, an event for students, faculty and staff who have their own small business to sell crafts, food items, etc. It’s more of an extra incentive to get families to attend, but students love it too. As of now, we don’t charge for the photos although I love the idea when it goes towards a local non-profit!
