For the fifth year, Damon Stoudamire played Santa to 75 kids by treating them to a shopping spree at Toys R Us Lloyd Center.
Kids ages 4-12 from Project Network and the Healthy Birth Initiative had a chance to buy gifts for themselves and others thanks to Stoduamire's generous holiday donation.
“Each year I look forward to hosting this shopping spree. Running up and down the aisles with the kids lets me return to those youth filled days of Christmas," said Damon.

"I got the doll I wanted, and I got to buy my brother a spiderman doll," said one little girl.
