About Blue Santa

In 1976, the Blue Santa Program was created to help bring holiday happiness to families and children throughout San Antonio. Blue Santa is all about bringing hope and joy to families that struggle to make ends meet during the toughest times of the year, the holidays.

Police officers are in a unique position to see the struggles families endure throughout the year. We assist thousands of families in our city by partnering with local businesses, organizations and volunteers to collect food, clothes, toys and monetary donations. A simple gift can change a life, and Blue Santa is our way of saying, “we care.” During the month of December, San Antonio police officers, volunteers, and Blue Santa, work very hard to deliver all the needed items to these underprivileged children and their families.

A Year-Round Mission

Through events such as SAPOA’s Sporting Clay Shoot and the Blue Santa Golf Tournament we promote the Blue Santa program throughout the year. The funds donated help to provide for the more than 10,000 children in our community who have received gifts since 2015.
