About Us: Ways to Help

GIVE Corporate or Foundation Gifts
Each year, dozens of companies ranging from Atlanta-based global companies to smaller local firms support The Empty Stocking Fund. In fact, corporations and foundations are the source of approximately 15 percent of our annual donations. We offer various levels of corporate sponsorship with commensurate benefits.

LEAD a Sponsor-A-Child Campaign
Sponsor-A-Child campaigns offer your employees an opportunity to get involved in a big way. For about the cost of lunch, individuals can pass the spirit of the holidays along to a child. Campaign coordinators act as the liaison between The Empty Stocking Fund and their company. We provide everything needed to lead a successful campaign - all campaign leaders have to do is encourage participation and accept donations.

DONATE as an Individual
The Empty Stocking Fund relies heavily on the support of the community. Individuals are responsible for nearly 73 percent of our annual donations. This strong and diversified support from the community is one of the many reasons The Empty Stocking Fund has become a local institution.

VOLUNTEER at Santa’s Village
Each year The Empty Stocking Fund enlists the support of hundreds of volunteers to staff our gift distribution center. From helping parents choose gifts for their children to delivering orders and maintaining inventory counts, there are a number of essential and rewarding jobs in the village. We welcome individuals or groups to volunteer. Many of our corporate sponsors have leveraged this opportunity as an alternative to traditional social holiday gatherings. And anyone who has ever spent a few hours with us will tell you that volunteering at Santa’s Village is one of the most satisfying experiences of the holiday season.
