The Ronald McDonald House of Augusta is looking for donations to support its annual Santa Shop. This initiative provides gifts and personal items to families being hosted by the RMH.

Below is a list of items needed at this year’s Santa Shop:

Teen items:

Fleece blankets
Bath and body gift sets
Fashion jewelry
Scarves
Books
Movies
Video games
Cameras
Diaries
Bluetooth speakers
Earbuds

Decorative socks
Sports balls (basketball, football, soccer, etc.)

Baby items:

Onesies
Sleepers

Gift cards are also accepted.

“Donors can drop off items in the lobby of the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Augusta located at 1442 Harper St. We are a 24-hour operation,” Bennett said. “You may deliver donations at your convenience.”

The Santa Shop is located on the third floor of the Ronald McDonald House and will be available through Christmas Day. Parents will be allowed to shop for their families.
