For 29 years, Gulfport Police Department employees have sponsored “Operation Santa” to give toys to needy children in Gulfport. Operation Santa is successful in part due to the contributions from residents. This year they want help in the form of monetary donations, new unwrapped toys, and gift cards. It’s been a particularly challenging
year for some families and your thoughtfulness will make their holiday. Call 727-893-1097 and leave a message.
