Operation: Help Santa to begin efforts

By Kristiny Lorett

People have the opportunity this year to help local high school students help elementary students enjoy Christmas.

Operation: Help Santa is a project that has been built up over the last few years, starting to raise funds and collect merchandise to provide elementary students with a special gift delivered by Santa and his elves.

The Rocky Boy High School Jobs for Montana Graduates class is joining Operation: Help Santa this season to collect toys and winter essentials for 320 or more students for a total goal of $4,800.

Businesses and community members can help by donating to the Rocky Boy JMG class’ Go Fund Me account or by contacting Kristiny Lorett, the 7-12 Rocky Boy School counselor, at [email protected] or at 395-4270, ext. 222.

Students with the program will be calling and visiting local businesses in the next few weeks for partnerships.
