Help Santa Al Take One Last Sleigh Ride

For over 38 years, Santa Al has brought joy to so many families in the Santa Clarita Valley and beyond. Whether it was a child who asked Santa for a guardian angel at Santa Clarita Elementary or Santa and Mrs. Claus bursting down Main Street in the turbo sleigh in the 4th of July parade in Newhall, Santa Al would always give so much of himself while also receiving so much love from the community.

Recently, he became ill with a very aggressive form of cancer and has been hospitalized. His family would like to bring him home to be at peace. He wants to be in the home that he built with his bare hands, where he has his tomato garden and workshop, and where he can listen to the birds sing.

The family wants to be able to provide the best quality care for him. We have started this Go Fund Me account to ease the burden of medical bills and to allow his family to bring him HOME. This is all he has asked for during this difficult time. This will enable the family to be with him more and not worry as much about the increasing cost of care.

From the bottom of our hearts, we humbly ask that you share this link with friends and family and if possible in giving (any amount will help).

We thank you for your support and God bless every one of you!
