Kelowna Santas is back and ready to spread some cheer for another holiday season! Kelowna Santas is a grassroots, volunteer initiative that strives to provide a better Christmas for less fortunate children that live in the areas of Lake Country, Kelowna and West Kelowna. Our participating Drop Locations will be collecting new, unwrapped toys until December 16th at 4pm, which will be delivered to families in need on December 19th.

We’ve all hit a few bumps in the road and understand the need for a little help once in a while. For families that need a hand providing their children ages 17 & under with a great gift this holiday season, don’t hesitate - register now.
Please note: Families must self-register, we cannot accept a registration for a family from a third party.

Registration is available until Dec 17th, 2021 for families that live between Peachland and Lake Country.

Ho, Ho, Ho! Kelowna Santas asked and you delivered.
Due to the overwhelming amount of volunteer entries, we have had to close our volunteer registration form.
It’s inspiring to see that so many members of our community want to make a positive impact in the lives of less fortunate children this Christmas.
Even though registration has closed, you can still make a difference by making a gift donation to Kelowna Santas at any of these drop locations.
To give a gift, just visit one of the many drop locations to donate a new unwrapped gift.
