About the event
For 26 years, Santa Cause has brought the grocery, drug and consumer-products community together during the holiday season to recognize exceptional industry contributors and raise funds for charity. This year, we celebrate Brody Powell and Frank Gallucci, two leaders whose influence can be seen in the businesses they have built, the people they have supported and the communities they continue to serve.
Your ticket is more than admission to an industry event. It is a visible show of appreciation for Brody and Frank, a chance to reconnect with colleagues and a direct contribution to the charitable impact created through Santa Cause.
CFDE is 100% volunteer led. After event costs are covered, funds not required to support CFDE events throughout the year are returned to charity through Santa Cause. Since the event began, CFDE has donated more than $159,000 to charitable organizations.
