It’s what Soltren calls his ‘Christmas give-away,’ where he throws a party for the children where Santa Claus hands out gifts. He works with both the Women’s Shelter and the Children’s Justice Center in order to reach children in dire need of holiday cheer. To donate to his cause, mail checks to Luis Soltren, 187 Hawaiiana St., Kapa‘a, 96746 or call 639-4836 for more information. Deadline to donate is Dec. 14.
