It’s that time of year when kids everywhere are making their lists and checking them twice. For many children in Ottawa, however, it’s a little different – this year, more than ever. Their hoped-for toy may not be under the tree waiting Christmas morning unless we have your help.

Due to the current pandemic, the 52-year strong Help Santa Toy Parade will occur in a different form on December 4th at 11am. For 2021 Parade Details learn more here.

But, nothing can stop Santa! We are holding an alternative event.

While we are all disappointed, our goal to spread happiness and cheer to families in need in our community remains the same. It just may look a little different this year…

Give generously to the “Help Santa Campaign” where your donations will go directly to supporting the important work of The Salvation Army in getting toys in the hands of kids in need this year.
