PICTURES WITH SANTA

Christmas Never Ends is honored to partner with Santa Claus Is Coming to Town to offer a special opportunity for photo visits with Santa while making a meaningful impact in our communities.


The mission of Santa Claus Is Coming to Town is to provide compassionate relief to children and families who have lost everything due to natural disasters. By harnessing the unique and comforting presence of Santa, this initiative seeks to empower families in Newport, Tennessee, and beyond. It offers children a safe shoulder to lean on during their toughest times and equips parents with the essential resources they need to rebuild their lives.


We invite you to meet Santa Claus and capture a cherished photograph. Your photo not only preserves a special memory but also supports families in need. For a thoughtful donation of $10, you can secure this special photo opportunity. Your generosity will directly contribute to restoring hope and providing essential aid to children and families affected by natural disasters. Please bring your camera, create a memorable moment with Santa, and join us in making a profound difference in a family’s journey to recovery.
