Introducing... Kids Count!

At CFAX Santas Anonymous, we know that the need to support children in our community doesn’t end at Christmas. Kids Count is how our volunteers and donors continue that support year-round by working with organizations and programs that serve children and youth through initiatives focused on food security, education, summer camps, mental well-being, and more.

Through Kids Count, we bring together two established initiatives:

Kids Count Children’s Grant Program (est. 2002) provides funding to local organizations delivering essential, year-round services for children. This volunteer-driven program supports food access, education, summer camps and sports, and helps respond to urgent needs in times of crisis.

Kids Count Gift Boxes, now in its second year, is a volunteer-driven initiative that packages toys from our Christmas program, along with ongoing donations, into age-appropriate gift boxes. These are distributed through trusted community partners, including firefighters, police, hospitals, and crisis workers, so they reach children with a moment of comfort, celebration, or joy when they need it most.

On behalf of my family, we want to express our gratitude for your kindness and thoughtfulness. The toys for our daughter, the gift voucher, and the groceries were far more than we expected and brought so much comfort and joy into our home.

My son has been loving his new toys, and the gift card for groceries made a huge difference for us. Thank you to everyone who volunteered and worked so hard. Seeing the kindness and effort put into this was genuinely inspiring.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the help we received this Christmas. With my partner recently losing their job, we weren't sure how we'd manage the holidays. Your support gave our kids a Christmas morning full of smiles.

The holiday hamper brought tears to my eyes. It wasn't just the gifts and groceries. It was knowing that someone out there cared enough to make sure our family didn't go without this Christmas.
