Grand Bahama Island -
It’s that time of the year again!   Over the past 30 plus years Santa's Helpers have been able to bring the wonder and joy of Christmas to many needy children on Grand Bahama with the help of the Community.  This year with the global and local economy in disarray we need your help more than ever.

Please help us to bring a Merry Christmas to our less fortunate children.  We need your donation of cash, new and used toys in good condition, batteries, wrapping paper and bows. We are in need of at least 7,000 to 9,000 toys.  This will help to bring smiles and enjoyment during the holiday season to our less fortunate families.

Please be generous with your heart and your cheque book.

Bring a wrapped toy labelled for a Boy or Girl and age level to make sure those children who need it most have a bright Christmas this year. 

Drop off locations are: The Freeport News, Lucaya International School, Bishop Michael Eldon School, Sunland School, Walter Parker Primary School, and Woodbourne Resort.

Also, the Christmas Express on December 20th will take us from the East End of Grand Bahama.  If you have the time, we would love for you to join us in delivering the presents and seeing for yourself the wonder of the season through a child’s eyes.

Time is of the essence; we would greatly appreciate an early response to our request.

God Bless & Thank you
Santa’s Helpers
