This year's drive is underway!

With the increased cost of living, families need our support more than ever. This year we are excited to partner with four beneficiaries (with more in the works!).

Join us in supporting families and children of the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), Minwaashin Lodge, Youth Services Bureau, and the Ottawa Community Resource Centre's Violence Against Women Program.

Annual Collection Drive

Our campaigns begin mid-October and run until mid- December, which is when we deliver to the beneficiary families. The Elves will receive profiles of the families who need our help, including, how many kids, what the kids would like as gifts, clothing, shoe sizes etc.

We have suggested guidelines that help guide our donors towards what to start shopping for, which includes: Grocery gift cards, gas cards, movie passes, McDonalds or Tim Hortons gift cards, stocking stuffers, clothing for each child, anything you are able to do off of their wish list! May we suggest something very small for the parents, if you are able to do so! This would go a long way!

That's a wrap on 2022

The 2022 Secret Elves Project was a huge success! We were able to expand our beneficiary list to include youth in crisis and Indigenous families and provided for over 60 families and hundreds of children. Thank you to our sponsors and donors who made this campaign possible. We look forward to helping out even more families this year!
