This year, Orange Santa will provide assistance in the form of a taxable payment processed through payroll. Applicants will receive one deposit with funds for all eligible children. This will be an off-cycle payment in December outside of the payroll deposit on the first of the month. The date of payment will be provided in an applicant's approval email. Orange Santa is no longer providing gift cards as a form of assistance.
