Volunteer

Our dedicated team of volunteers works directly with the school counselors to identify families that need support within our community. If you are in need of assistance, please visit with your child's school counselor to determine the next step.

You will transport items that can be heavy and/or bulky. Included in the boxes will be food, toys, and clothing. Each volunteer can make anywhere from one to four deliveries a night. All deliveries require a minimum of two people.

You will pick up the items from the Expo building at the Sioux Falls Fairgrounds. There can be a line of several cars waiting to get items for delivery, so we thank you for your patience. The line might appear long, but we are very efficient in our loading process.

You just have to drive in and tell us where to load the gifts. Our team of volunteers will load all packages into your vehicle for you.

Finally, within minutes we will provide you with a document that has all the contact information for your recipient family and your off to spread the joy of Christmas!

Most cars can hold at least one delivery and larger cars can take two. Expect each delivery to have a couple of 20"x20" size boxes, a couple of reusable bags, and possibly some loose items such as gallons of milk.

Yes. There will most likely be a line when you first get to the fairgrounds, but we move extremely fast with our loading so you won't have to wait long. We encourage you to build up your Christmas spirit singing or simply take a few minutes to talk with family / friends about all the things your thankful for this holiday season. Feel confident that we load 10-15 cars in just a few minutes, so the lines go nice and fast!

Absolutely! This is a great opportunity to see the community coming together and giving back.

We do our best to ensure all that sign up are able to deliver at least 1 delivery. As we know how the night is going, we may open or ask if you want to make another delivery or "double up" We have around 350 deliveries each night.

You will receive a control sheet with instructions on what to do. It’s a simple text to let us know your delivery is complete.
