Annual Santa Charity Event

Just a few of the items that will be available for raffle tomorrow!

I love Santa Claus. My feelings about him are probably best expressed by the editor of the New York’s Sun in 1897, when an 8-year-old girl named Virginia wrote to him and asked him if there was a Santa Claus.

He replied, “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotions exist, and you know that they abound and give your life its highest beauty and joy.

Love. Generosity. Devotion. And that is what our Santa Charity Event is about this weekend. Love for the cleft and craniofacial children of Utah and their families. Generosity from Alicia Kinne Photography, Symphony Homes and many others who have donated to our event. And devotion from a charitable community and a specialized medical team to give the gift of treatment to those who are unable to afford it otherwise.

I hope you can join us! If you are not able to make it and would like to still make a tax deductible donation, you can click on the link in our profile.

Date: Saturday, December 11th
Time: 10am-1pm
Place: 1558 W Pheasant Meadow Drive, Kaysville, Utah

Pictures are a minimum donation of $20 per digital download. Prize drawing tickets are $5 a piece for an opportunity to win some amazing prizes.

Merry Christmas!

With Gratitude,
Director of The Utah Smiles Foundation

I am excited to announce Angie Lines with Utah Smiles Foundation is joining to run this awesome event! I know so many of you were sad and disappointed that it was not running again this year. It just got too much for me to do myself each year. This foundation works to help give the gift of treatment to Utah children born with facial abnormalities. How wonderful that you can help them ❤️❤️❤️ If you would like to donate a raffle item please comment below and we can chat. Angie will be taking over the event and Alicia (me) will still provide the photos. Santa and Mrs Claus are so excited to see you all again they have missed you!! Thank you for your continued support each year.

Hello all you beautiful Santa fans! I have noticed a increase in traffic to this page the last week. I am sad to say that with covid I am not quite sure how we could facilitate the event this year. 😭. I would hate for Santa to get sick be not be able to make his deliveries on Christmas Eve! If anything changes it will be posted here on this page. Thank you for all the years of support. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you again for your support and for donating so much to these two charities!!! The left over will go to school districts to purchase items in need for students.

Way to go for spreading Holiday Cheer!!
♥️🤶🏻🎅🏻♥️🤶🏻🎅🏻♥️🤶🏻🎅🏻♥️🤶🏻🎅🏻♥️🤶🏻🎅🏻♥️🤶🏻

WOW what a great day! Thank you so much for supporting our event year after year ❤ We raised nearly $4k today that will be going to The Ronald McDonald house and Catholic Community Services. So AMAZING! This would not be possible without your help so thank YOU!

Another HUGE thanks to Journey Five. They staged this event perfectly for us. We are so grateful for their generosity in using their event space. Isn't it beautiful! Did you know you can rent it for your next event or party? You can visit their site to learn more. https://www.journeyfive.com/pa... Not to mention the darling retail space they have. If you did not get over to shop their store, don't forget to share the love to tell them thanks and use your coupon. Supporting small businesses that support our community ROCKS!

OK now to the boring instructional part of the email. Your images will be inside this gallery. YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID for your images. This is a digital download. Because of the large number of images I loaded just about all of them, to cut down on culling time. If there are duplicates that is why. At this time I am not ordering prints, feel free to download and order at your favorite print lab. If for some reason you do not see your image please contact me ASAP. YOU MUST download your image. I do not keep these photos accessible year after year. You will have 60 days before the gallery is taken down to access and save your images.

This has been such an amazing thing that started with canned food donations 10 years ago and blossomed into this! If you are interested in helping or possibly taking this on next year please contact me via email [email protected]

Last but not least THANK YOU Mr. and Mrs. Claus they are so gracious to donate their time each year and be apart of your kids growing up. I am amazed at how many kids they visit with and have remembered them from year to year. Santa magic no doubt.

Wishing you the happiest of Holidays, may you feel the true meaning of the season by your gift to those in need this year.

xoxo

Alicia
