ACCESS Brings Santa to Dearborn Students (PHOTOS)

For nearly 40 years, Santa has found time on his busy holiday schedule to make a stop at Dearborn's Salina Elementary School to spread Christmas cheer and hand out gifts to the school's 800 students.

Local nonprofit ACCESS hosts the bilingual Santa event each year, with the monetary and volunteer help of some "elves" from Comerica Bank and the Dearborn Kiwanis Club.

Each child receives an age- and gender-appropriate gift, plus some healthy edible goodies to take home.
