Drop Off

Drop off. We'll distribute to the families.

STEP ONE: CHOOSE YOUR DRIVE THEME

  • Select a location - this is the area where the family lives and where you will drop-off the gifts
  • Fill in the form

STEP TWO: GET A LIST

  • When a list is ready that matches your request, we will email you a wishlist of an actual family
  • Budget to spend $200 per family member + $150 grocery gift card

STEP 3: SHOP

  • The wishlist is detailed, but you are NOT obligated to buy everything!
  • The required items include:
    • A winter coat (or snow suit), hat and mitts for each member
    • Two household items
    • Two Santa toys for each child
    • A $150 grocery gift card
  • Other items on the list are optional
  • The presents must be new (no used items) and unwrapped

STEP FOUR: Drop-Off

  • In late November, we will send you details of the designated drop-off centre and a drop-off date
  • You will be asked to to package and number the gifts
  • In Santa's Workshop, the gifts will be checked, wrapped and packaged for delivery to the family before Christmas Day.
