The Atlanta Lawyer December 2017/January 2018 | Page 11

Each December, the Atlanta Santa
Program led by Chief Santa, the
Hon. T. Jackson Bedford, Jr., sends
Santa and his Elves to visit hospi-
tals, shelters, and senior homes
during the holiday season to bring
joy to many underserved and sick
children and adults throughout
Atlanta. 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.
We would like to extend thanks
to this year's Atlanta Santa Proj-
ect 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 Rob Wellon, Eileen
Thomas, Kathleen Layton, 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 collec-
tive group that allows the Atlanta
Santa Project to continue making
dreams come true.
