Welcome
Elf Anonymous is non-denominational volunteer-based initiative that brings holiday joy to seniors who do not have loved ones to celebrate with in the month of December. We partner with local senior lodges and assisted living facilities to spread holiday cheer.
To date, Elf Anonymous has helped 347 seniors to find connections over the holidays!
Elf Anonymous has expanded beyond the winter season!
What do elves do when not in Santa's workshop? They're still spreading joy, of course! In 2019, we expanded operations to include an event at a local Edmonton senior lodge during Alberta Seniors Week
2020 Program Now Closed
Here is how we combatted the challenges of 2020 to ensure 100 seniors were connected with their community:
The 2020 health pandemic brought on some new challenges with our regular face-to-face holiday celebration that has brought joy to our senior citizens. This year, we approached our program differently and collected heartfelt letters and holiday cards, along with a $15 donation for 100 seniors across three retirement living facilities in the Edmonton area. Our small team delivered holiday gifts along with the letters received to our partner retirement residences before the December holiday season in a physically distanced and appropriate manner.
