THE SANTA CLAUS FELLOWSHIP
“In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child.”
-L Frank Baum, The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus





Greetings from The Santa Claus Fellowship
Where joy lives, kindness thrives, and magic is always within reach.
At the heart of The Santa Claus Fellowship is a simple but powerful belief: Every child deserves to feel the magic of being seen, celebrated, and loved—not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.
Born in the heart of Southern Indiana, The Santa Claus Fellowship is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring wonder, rekindling joy, and inspiring acts of kindness in communities near and far. Guided by the true spirit of Christmas, our mission is to serve children and families through joyful giving, heartfelt connection, and year-round celebration.
This isn’t just about holiday cheer. It’s about lifting spirits in quiet seasons, protecting the boundless imagination of every child, and creating sacred spaces where hope, kindness, and belief never go out of style.
Our Mission in Action
The Fellowship is brought to life through four heart-led divisions:
Kringle Toy Makers
One-of-a-kind, handcrafted gifts made by Santa himself—each created with love and a story. These meaningful treasures are sold through local nonprofits to help children, families, and communities in need.
The Santa Claus Institute of Traditional Studies
Teaching and inspiring the next generation of Santas, storytellers, and community leaders—grounded in compassion, tradition, and heart. Applications for the Fall 2026 session are now open!
The Santa Claus Research Committee
Preserving the legends, lessons, and legacy of Santa Claus. Honoring those who embody his spirit and sharing that wonder through education and celebration.
Community Visits & Outreach
Bringing joy where it’s needed most—through hospital visits, holiday events, and partnerships with compassionate organizations. A place where no child is forgotten and every family feels the warmth of Christmas.
Be Part of the Fellowship
With plans to be fully operational by 2025, The Santa Claus Fellowship is more than a vision—it’s a growing movement of volunteers, donors, artists, and believers.
Whether you:
- Donate to support our work
- Volunteer your time and talents
- Become a nonprofit or corporate partner
- Or simply share our story with someone who needs it
You become part of something magical. Something lasting. Something deeply needed.
A World Where Joy Has No Season
The Santa Claus Fellowship exists to remind the world that kindness still matters, wonder still matters, and every child deserves to believe in something good.
Together, we can build a future where joy is never out of reach, where giving is a daily gift, and where every heart—no matter how small—feels the warmth of being remembered.
Welcome to The Santa Claus Fellowship.
Where every gift carries meaning, every child matters, and the spirit of Christmas is alive all year long.
