The Domestic Violence Center of Santa Clarita Valley is offering Rent-A-Santa services to the community this holiday season to support its 30-day emergency shelter.

For the fourth year running, the center is offering Santa and Mrs. Claus for rent to add Christmas cheer to holiday events.

“We designate proceeds from the services to support the 30-day emergency shelter,” said Linda Davies, executive director of the Domestic Violence Center.

The price to rent Santa and Co. is $100 for the first hour, $150 (total) for two hours, and then a third hour is an additional $100 ($250 total).

“Every year we look forward to providing this service to our community,” said Davies. “We have a dedicated group of community members that volunteer to be Santa or Mrs. Claus at certain events at homes or businesses.”

For nearly two decades, the Rent-A-Santa fundraiser has been serving the Santa Clarita Valley.

It was first coordinated by the Zonta Club of Santa Clarita, but in 2013, the club gifted the fundraiser to The Domestic Violence Center of Santa Clarita.

Those interested in renting a Santa for their holiday event or volunteering as a Santa are urged to contact Barbara Cochran at (661) 251-1352.

“We’re always looking for new Santa’s as well, and if anyone wants to volunteer as a Santa (they) can contact (us) to get Santa training,” said Davies.
