About Us

We are a registered charity and we are passionate about spreading Christmas cheer throughout Tauranga, one shoebox at a time. Whilst a shoebox doesn’t seem like much for some people, for many children, Christmas with gifts doesn’t happen for them. A shoebox of brand-new gifts to call their own can make a memorable Christmas for many.

Bee and Claire are the main faces of the operation. These two do all the administration, liaison with schools and organisations, emails, coordination of sorting and deliveries. Cy is our IT / website guru who developed our website and registration software and then manages and troubleshoots throughout the year. We also have a team of ‘elves’ who assist with sorting, drop offs and deliveries as and when required.
