The 5th Annual Hometown Christmas Parade in Glendale kicks off at 11 a.m. on Saturday, and you can help a great Valley cause while having fun with the family.
Donation boxes for Operation Santa Claus will be set up along the parade route for visitors to donate non-perishable food items, clothing, or new, unwrapped toys.
Operation Santa Claus is a Valley tradition and partnership between ABC15 and Sanderson Ford and Sanderson Lincoln to collect food, toys, clothes, and monetary donations for Arizona charities.
This year’s charities are: St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Phoenix, Southwest Autism Research and Resource Center (SARRC) and Military Assistance Mission (MAM).
