The Process

How It Works

Transforming the simple act of giving into a meaningful connection.

With consent, children’s Christmas wishes and needs are presented on our platform.

2

Choose a Child

Browse profiles and select a child or group of children you would like to support.

3

Give a Gift

Fulfil a wish, provide a package, contribute items, or make a financial donation.

Light Up a Child

Once fulfilled, their profile is marked “Lit Up.” Every light represents a brighter Christmas.

Light Up More

One child. One gift. One light. Together, we can light up Christmas.

"You matter. Your child matters. You are not forgotten."

For some families, Christmas may be difficult to afford while managing the additional costs associated with raising a child with special needs. Festival of Light provides an opportunity for the wider community to stand with these families.
