Donor Listings
Beginning in early December, in addition to stories about families assisted through this program, The Boston Globe publishes a list of individuals and groups (over 8,200 listings in 2005) who have donated to the Globe Santa Fund. Donations can be made anonymously, in memory of another, or as one of Santa's Friends.

Recognizing the donations in print is done as space allows and in the order that donations are received. In the past we have had many calls from contributors who wanted to know when a particular donation was recognized in print. To give donors immediate access to this information, we have provided the ability to search online to find the publication date of a donation.

In addition to the daily stories and lists of donors, we also print pictures of people donating. These pictures typically capture group donations, such as school and college groups, business firms, restaurants, etc.

Groups or organizations are encouraged to call 617-929-8777 to schedule a picture when making a donation to The Boston Globe's Globe Santa.
