More than Just a Box: A Personal Gesture
What sets this project apart is its personal essence. Donors are informed about the child they’re gifting – their name, age, and gender. Each box, lovingly packed, includes essentials such as a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, a washcloth, sweets, a toy, school supplies, and an outfit, ensuring all items are new and age-appropriate.
Donors are encouraged to involve their own children in the process of personally selecting the name of a child from one of the centres or children’s homes, and putting together his or her individualised, age appropriate Santa Shoebox gift.

A Humble Beginning, A Grand Journey
The Santa Shoebox Project, starting with a simple 180 shoeboxes in Cape Town in 2006, has now touched the incredible mark of 1,152,587 donated boxes, reaching out to children across South Africa and Namibia.
Community: The Heart of the Project
This vast endeavor thrives on the selfless service of volunteers from both South Africa and Namibia. Their dedication, combined with generous contributions from corporate sponsors, drives the project forward. Notably, numerous companies make Santa Shoebox pledges integral to their social responsibility programs.
Let's rally together this festive season, enriching it for children eagerly awaiting their special Santa Shoebox. Every contribution brings joy. Dive in, be part of this beautiful giving spree!
