Holiday Wish List Program
What Kind of Elf Are You?
Our community of Elves make the holidays warm and wonderful for our youth. Each holiday season, they go above and beyond to provide gifts and stocking stuffers for Vista Maria residents.
Shopper Elf
Grant the wishes of an individual child, or several children, by purchasing all four items on their personalized Wish Lists. Shoppers can expect to spend between $200 to $300 on each child’s individual list. Please be as faithful to the list as you can, as your gifts will be their entire Christmas.
Lists for 2025 will be available in early November. In years past, this individualized program has filled up quickly, so be sure to sign up early.
Stocking Elf
Help fill our youths’ stockings with extra goodies by purchasing items from our stocking stuffer list. These items can be found at most stores, at bargain prices, and on our Amazon and Target wish lists.
Angel Elf
Sponsor the Holiday Wish List Program by providing a monetary donation that will cover the costs of any last-minute items, or for any youth who come in right before Christmas. By donating online or providing gift cards to stores like Kohl’s, Meijer, Target, and Amazon, you can help us fulfill last-minute wishes.
Workshop Elf
Our Vista Maria Boutique and offices become the epicenter of holiday cheer every December! You can help sort and wrap gifts and organize “Santa’s Workshop” right here on Vista Maria’s campus. Volunteer times are typically 9am–5pm, Monday-Friday, with a few special weekend opportunities.
