The Blue Santa Program of the SAPD

The Blue Santa program started in San Antonio in 1976 when police officers from the Community Relations Unit adopted needy families and their children at Christmas time. The officers provided these families with groceries for Christmas dinner and Christmas presents for their children. These police officers who wore their blue uniforms, became known as the "Blue Santas".

In 1986 the Blue Santa Program was made an official project of SAPD. This program works by police officers from throughout the city identifying the needy families in their patrol districts. The officers then submit this information to the Community Services officers for consideration. Community Services officers act as a collecting point for donations of money, food and toys. The cash donations are used to purchase additional toys and food items that may be needed.

This year, the SAPD officers and volunteers will assemble the gifts, wrap and label them, and make sure the appropriate gift is delivered to each child on the Blue Santa list. Officers who have submitted nominations of needy children deliver the packages to the families. Whenever possible, an officer dressed in the "Blue Santa" costume accompanies the police officers on their deliveries.

The success of the Blue Santa Program depends on the generous contributions from local businesses, civic organizations, and countless San Antonio residents.
