630 CHED Santas Anonymous has partnered with Ikea to provide volunteers in their Christmas Tree Program, in return IKEA Edmonton will make a large donation to our campaign.

We are requesting your help to make this program a success by offering a Day of Giving to Santas Anonymous.  We ask that your company choose one day to provide volunteers in the Christmas tree lot during the Tree Lot program – November 18-December 22. The tree lot would require a minimum of two people at all times, we recommend scheduling in 3 hours shifts throughout the day.

Email volunteer@santasanonymous.ca for more information!

Porters assist Delivery Days volunteer drivers with taking gift packages from Santa's Depot to their vehicles in the parking lot.  Porters may also assist drivers with bringing undeliverable gift packages from their vehicles into Santas Depot. One adult dispatch supervisor is required per group, however, youth ages 16 are eligible to be porters. All group members must be able to work independently and must be capable of carrying loads of gifts to vehicles.

From time to time, we are presented with the opportunity to raise funds/toys through a third-party activity. For example events volunteers have been very colourful at Color Me Rad, collected donations at Edmonton Eskimo games, sold 50/50 tickets at Oilers and Oil Kings games and more.

Depot volunteers join the elves at Santas Depot for 3-hour shifts in groups of 4 to 10. Volunteers can be involved in some or all of the following activities: preparing gifts for individual children, bagging gifts for specific families, sorting toy donations, condensing sorted toy bins, and putting batteries in toys. 

Due to COVID-19, group sizes have been reduced to a maximum of 10 for the 2020 season. 

• All Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older. 
• The request form will be available online from October 1-31
• Shifts are scheduled between November 18-December 4, 2021
• Group volunteering is extremely popular and we often receive more requests than shifts available. In order to make it as fair of a process as possible, a lottery draw may be held for any oversubscribed (typically evening) shifts.
• Groups will be notified by November 6 regarding their shift date or waitlist status.
• Cancellation: Should we need to cancel your shift as much notice will be given as possible.
