• Volunteer for Santa's Workshop 2023

    What is Santa's Workshop?

    This is an annual event where families served by the Department of Children & Family Services (DCFS) are invited to campus for lunch, arts & crafts, and photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus! This is an amazing experience for the children but we can't do it without you!
