656 Foundation
As the story goes, Santa flies around the world in his sleigh drawn by nine reindeer. He slides down chimneys, leaves gifts for children and enjoys milk and cookies.
In Kenner, LA. Santa is in the sand.
Theoretically, at least.
Each December, TKN, along with a group of volleyball elves, produce ”Santa in the Sand”, a beach volleyball extravaganza with games, live and silent auctions, music and entertainment, food/beverage, to raise resources and ensure those without have an opportunity to share in the holiday spirit. In collaboration with the City of Kenner 10 families will be selected as recipients of Santa in the Sand’s 2024 gifting.
Brasher and Nuss are currently the No. 1 women’s beach volleyball team in the country and represented the U.S.A. in the 2024 Paris Olympics. Even though their competition schedule has them traveling around the world for tournaments, not to mention practicing long hours daily, giving back to the people of Louisiana remains a priority for the duo.
