We Connect Families to Sponsors at Christmas



This what we do to help



Christmas is a joyous time for some, but for those who struggle to make ends meet, it can lead to stress and sadness.​

1. We accept families based on intake forms and match them with a sponsor in their area.
2. We seek generous sponsors to connect with families in need.
3. We graciously accept volunteers to make Christmas a joyous experience for those who may not otherwise have an opportunity to enjoy.

We want to help make Christmas Special for everyone.


Project Christmas Elf is for those who would like to help out people experiencing financial distress this Christmas.

The hope is that among us, we have the resources to give gifts to those underprivileged.

Project Christmas Elf is here to lend a hand to any families in the Okanagan/Shuswap areas looking for some support this Christmas.

The project is an initiative consisting of "community members helping community members," from Chase to Peachland. 100% volunteer-based.

It began in 2016 when Diane Evans started the project, and since then, hundreds of families have been adopted by generous sponsors.

Our goal is to one day be able to service the entire Southern Interior of British Columbia, so that everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Whether you are a family who needs a sponsor or a Sponsor who wishes to help out a family, the Elves can help you connect and make a better Christmas for everyone!
