PHOENIX — Giving back is a great way to start the holiday season, and Sanderson Ford is kicking it off by spreading cheer and helping the Valley community by supporting the Operation Santa Claus charity drive.

Operation Santa Claus is a 501(c)(3) charity and has raised over $15 million in food, toys, clothing and donations to Arizona families over the last 25 years. Sanderson Ford has been a long-time supporter of the cause.

You can donate Nov. 6 through Dec. 18 by bringing toys, nonperishable packaged food, children’s clothing or money donations to Sanderson Ford locations and elsewhere, including:

Sanderson Ford at 6400 North 51st Ave., Glendale
Sanderson Lincoln on Bell Road at 2121 West Bell Rd., Phoenix
ABC 15 at 515 North 44th St., Phoenix
Sanderson Ford Lincoln Boutique at 15345 North Scottsdale Rd., Suite 140, Scottsdale
U-Haul moving and storage locations across the Valley.

Those who can not make contributions to the drive in person can make monetary donations online.

This year’s drive will support St. Mary’s Food Bank, SARRC (Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center), Military Assistance Mission, Special Olympics Arizona and New Life Center.

Chance to win prizes through Operation Santa Claus

Every accepted donation will give you a chance to win prizes, including a 2025 Ford F-150 or a 2025 Lincoln Corsair STX.

Three finalists will be drawn each Wednesday throughout the drive on ABC 15’s Sonoran Living.

Fifteen total finalists will each receive a $100 Visa gift card and a key at the Operation Santa Claus finale. One winner’s key will be able to start the truck and drive home the grand prize.

Several local businesses will host events throughout the season where people can participate and donate to Operation Santa Claus. These events include:

Harkins Theatres PSA Campaign from Nov. 3–30
Arizona Sports’ Pickleball On-Air Raffle on 98.7, Nov. 14 from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Walmart Stuff the Sleigh on Nov. 15 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Swing for Santa Golf Tournament on Nov. 23 at Wigwam Golf Resort
Surprise Party at Surprise Recreation Campus on Dec. 5–6
