    www.SantaTheExperiece.com

    November 11, 2020 – ‘Tis the season! As Santa and his elves prepare for the holidays, families & children across the world – for the first time ever – can now visit Santa from the comfort of their own homes by traveling to The North Pole with SANTA – THE EXPERIENCE! Each virtual experience will take place via Zoom and can be shared with other family members, allowing for grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins and more to safely join in on the treasured memory of visiting Santa.

    SANTA – THE EXPERIENCE is a magical interactive elf-guided journey through winter’s busiest wonderland, along with a personal live video chat with Santa himself! Sleigh ride departures will run from December 1-24, with each live experience available from $34.95.

    Families will be welcomed by one of Santa’s elves at the beginning of their visit before exploring Santa’s Mailroom, the Elf’s Bedroom, The North Pole’s Reindeer Stables and of course, the famous and bustling Toy Factory. Rumor has it that Mrs. Claus may even make an appearance…! The virtual trip continues in meeting Santa himself for the perfect chance to tell him just how good they have been this year. After saying goodbye, they can receive a video recording of their chat with Santa including shareable social media content as the perfect keepsake of the once-in-a-lifetime trip.

    SANTA – THE EXPERIENCE is produced by GTC. “We are so excited to bring SANTA – THE EXPERIENCE to life. Giving the ability to share such a precious moment virtually with family members makes this holiday season even more special,” says GTC co-founder James Hyland. “We truly believe children will enjoy this experience even more from the comfort of their own home."

    In a year where so many traditions have been forced to change, SANTA – THE EXPERIENCE is making sure that not only do visits to Santa stay intact, but that they are made into an even more unforgettable, shared family experience than any other year.

  • Hungerless Holidays with the Hometown Foundation
    Everyone looks forward to the joys of celebrating over a family meal during the holiday season. Sadly, the thought of having a Thanksgiving Dinner is one that many families dream of, but are not fortunate enough to enjoy. This is why The Hometown Foundation, Inc. is proud to host its annual Thanksgiving Turkey Drive to provide turkeys to families in need during the holiday season. The Thanksgiving Turkey Drive is the signature fundraising event for the Individuals in Need initiative of The Hometown Foundation, Inc.

    The Thanksgiving Turkey Drive is an event devoted to donating turkeys to families in need during the holiday season and community outreach. In 2019, turkeys were distributed in the Bronx, Yonkers, Harlem, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Hartford, Boston, New Haven County and Fairfield County. During the 2019 Thanksgiving season over 15,000 turkeys and thousands of pounds of produce were donated to the Greater Northeast.

    In 2020, The Hometown Foundation, Inc. is going to take this inspiring event one step further. Our goal is to donate 25,000 turkeys across the Northeast and Florida.

    The Hometown Foundation, Inc. in partnership with local community leaders and businesses, will come together to create dedicated distribution centers for those in need during the holiday season. Our goal is simple, we strive to bring communities together to ensure no family is left hungry or in need during the holiday season.
