Each December , the Atlanta Santa Program led by Chief Santa , the Hon . T . Jackson Bedford , Jr ., sends Santa and his Elves to visit hospitals , shelters , and senior homes during the holiday season to bring joy to many underserved and sick children and adults . The happiness of each face as they watch Santa perform magic tricks or pull a special gift from his bag is a reward greater than any Santa or elf could ask for .
We would like to extend thanks to this year ' s Atlanta Santa Project volunteers for contributing to this worthwhile project inclucing Santa Mike Brewster , Santa Chris McFadden , Santa James Byrd , Santa Don Edwards , Santa Brian Johnson , Santa Gary Spencer and Lead Elves Eileen Thomas , Kathleen Layton , Becky Hall , Mike St . Amand , Monique McDowell , and Dawn de Klerk . In addition , numerous other members serve , many visiting the same place each year . Though there are too many volunteers to list , it is the dedication of each individual as well as the collective group that allows the Atlanta Santa Project to continue making dreams come true .
