The holiday season is a time of magic, joy, and giving. At Parati Yoga & Wellness, we are proud to partner with Elemental Ninja to support 880 CHED Santas Anonymous, an incredible organization dedicated to bringing the spirit of Christmas to Edmonton’s children.
Through our Toy Drive, we’re collecting new, unwrapped toys to ensure every child experiences the magic of the holidays. Together, we can make a lasting impact and spread joy where it’s needed most.
About 880 CHED Santas Anonymous
Founded in 1955 by Jerry Forbes, 880 CHED Santas Anonymous has been delivering Christmas joy to Edmonton’s children for over six decades. What began as a modest initiative with a handful of volunteers has grown into a city-wide tradition that now supports more than 20,000 children every year.
The mission of 880 CHED Santas Anonymous is simple yet powerful:“To see every child
receive a new toy at Christmas.”
With the help of thousands of volunteers and generous donors, Santas Anonymous collects, sorts, packages, and delivers toys to children who might otherwise go without. This charity stands as a testament to the power of community and the lasting impact of giving.
Jerry Forbes’ vision continues to inspire:
“Wouldn’t it be great if there would be no needy kids and every kid had a present? Not a used present—but a brand-new present.”
