About the Event
Now in its third year, our Santa’s Little Helpers gift wrapping event with WACO has become one of Giving Group’s most meaningful holiday traditions.
Each year, over 100 children come together to purchase gifts—not just for themselves, but for their family members. While they shop, our team of volunteers helps bring the magic full circle by wrapping their selections with care, joy, and plenty of holiday cheer.
This event is about more than ribbons and wrapping paper—it’s about reminding kids that giving feels just as special as receiving.
We’d love your help to make this morning as magical as ever. No experience necessary—just your early morning energy and kind heart.
Volunteer age: This is a great family activity as we are inviting volunteers ages 12 y/o & above. (Students will receive Community Service Credit)
So, bring your family, or a friend, or a group of friends and bond with a grateful child!
