Worcester holiday charity Santa House losing its home Jan. 15
SNOW HILL — A longtime Worcester County charity providing holiday gifts for hundreds of local families is losing its headquarters and may have to shut down if it can’t find a new home.
For more than a decade, Worcester County officials have allowed Santa House to use, at no cost to the organization, an 8,000-square-foot warehouse in Snow Hill for storage and office space.
Effective Jan. 15, the county’s Department of Liquor Control is reclaiming the space, and will use it to house bulk liquor purchases.
“There’s nothing to fight,” said Dena Holloway, who runs Santa House. “They’ve been kind enough to let us stay here for 13 years, for free. I’ve never had to pay an electric bill, never had to pay anything.”

Publishers Notes: I think it's important you know that this organization is NOT looking for a similar volume of space. I was told they need something like a 40 x 40 space, should you or someone you know be willing to donate some space for a really great cause.

Joe don't you own a warehouse they could use?
It needs to be centrally located in Worcester County. If I did own a warehouse convenient for them, you know very well I'd step up to the plate in a New York Second.
There are so many empty condo foreclosures out there, they could have a mini warehouse in every neighborhood!
Less shipping!
