Christmas is fast approaching and now is the time of the year to open your hearts to the children of Yoakum! The Yoakum Police, Fire, EMS and Volunteers Fire Department are gearing up again for their annual Blue Santa Program, which donates toys to needy children from 0-10 years of age.

Yoakum Community Hospital is now a designated drop off site for Blue Santa. Gifts may be dropped off at the Registration Office of YCH located near the Main Entrance of the hospital.

If you have any questions about the Blue Santa program, please call Yvonne Rodriguez or Kathy Peoples at (361) 293-5234.
