Orange Santa 2024 Needs Your Support!

Hosted by the Office of the President, Orange Santa began in 1994 as a program designed to foster a more caring university environment by providing help for members of the university community in need during the holiday season. In December 2023, Orange Santa served 600 families, including more than 1,300 children. This year, we anticipate the need to be great once again.


"This Christmas has become better with your support!"  Orange Santa Gift Card Recipient 

"This means so much. I appreciate our community and am so grateful and hope to donate next year." -- Orange Santa Gift Recipient

 

For 2024, Orange Santa will continue to provide financial assistance, this time through a payment via payroll. Families who apply and are approved will receive a payment through payroll with assistance for all approved children. 

 

Orange Santa is only possible through the support of the UT Austin community. As the program has evolved and grown, the support from Longhorn Nation has become even more vital. 

Please consider making a gift today to support one of these families!
