How to Support Operation Cratchit

Since 1969, we have been providing Christmas Baskets for our neighbors in need of some extra help during the Christmas holidays! Operation Cratchit is made possible because of the generous contributions of individuals, businesses, groups, and churches. YOU can help us continue this tradition by offering support in the following ways:

Cash contributions for:
- food vouchers to grocery stores for perishable items
- toys & gifts for children
- New and unwrapped toys & gift items for children and teens, up to age 15
- Non-perishable food ~ canned and packaged items, including baby food
- New wrapping paper

Donated items may be delivered to:

Stanford Settlement Neighborhood Center
450 West El Camino Avenue
Sacramento, CA 95833-2299

For more ideas about how to involve your family, business, church group, or
organization in supporting this project, please contact us.

Operation Cratchit a Success!

Operation Cratchit 2011 was a huge success, thanks to the generosity of our donors and volunteers. Nearly 70,000 lbs. of food was donated and delivered by the students of Jesuit High School. Brookfield School, Smythe Elementary School, and numerous businesses and individuals also donated food.

The employees of Aerojet gave a huge donation of new toys, including over 30 brand new bicycles with helmets! Others that gathered toys & gifts include 3fold, Toys for Tots, Bank of America retirees, Metro Edge, GNNA, and many individuals.

We are grateful for everyone that helped make the holidays brighter for the 743 households served. Thank you!!
