How You Can Help

Host a Toy Drive: Collect new, unwrapped toys and gifts for children of all ages at your business, school, or in your community. We can provide toy idea lists and flyers to help.

Adopt an Age Range: Choose one or two age groups to focus on and collect gifts specifically for those ages.

Donate Toys & Gifts: Give new, unwrapped toys and gifts for children of all ages.

Shop Our Amazon Wish List: Shop directly from our Amazon Wish List and have gifts sent to A Wish Come True.

Donate Gift Cards: Gift cards in $25 amounts are especially helpful for our older children. Popular options include Target, Walmart, Amazon, clothing stores, and restaurants.

Give a Monetary Donation: Donate at
awish.org/donate and note “Santa’s Workshop,” or mail a check payable to A Wish Come True. Our elves will do the shopping!
Gift idea lists organized by age and gender, along with
toy drive flyers, are available to help people get started.
What Is Santa's Workshop?
Every child deserves to feel the magic of the holidays!
For many of the wish families we support, the holidays can bring extra financial stress while caring for a child with a life-threatening illness.
Santa’s Workshop helps take some of that stress away. A Wish Come True transforms its space into a holiday store where parents can personally choose gifts for their children at no cost. Once they have finished shopping, our volunteer elves wrap their gifts so they are ready to bring home.
This year’s Santa’s Workshop will take place December 17 & 18, 2026, for wish families to shop. All donations must arrive by December 10 so we have time to prepare.
Last year, with the help of our amazing community, 87 wish families and 210 children and siblings received 1,050 holiday gifts!
This year, we need your help filling Santa’s Workshop again!
