We’re making spirits bright and GIVING CHRISTMAS to families in need with children (Ages Infant - 12) within Philadelphia. 

With a goal of giving 1,000 toys and stocking stuffers to children within Philadelphia, new toys and stocking stuffers will be collected for children, ages Infant-12, culminating in a free shopping experience for parents/guardians to choose and wrap toys for their children and visit a stocking stuffer station, as well as a holiday celebration for the whole family. With opportunities to get pictures with Santa, enjoy a hot cocoa bar, and more, this is where the joy of the season is felt by all.

Here’s how YOU and your business can get involved and experience GIVING CHRISTMAS:

  • Donate much-needed, new toys and stocking stuffers for children (Ages Infant - 12), being collected from November 1 - December 8, for the event happening on December 13. [LIST OF LOCATIONS]
