WHAT IS THE HOLIDAY ELVES PROGRAM? Each year the Tree House Child and Family Center launches their Holiday Elf program to provide a special holiday experience for children ages 0-17 in Walworth County through fulfillment of wished-for and needed items. Members of the community shop anonymously for families enrolled in the program. Both the members of the community and the family identities remain anonymous. The minimum and recommended gift value for each child is approximately $100, and community members are encouraged to provide an item of need, as well as an item from the child’s wish list. We understand that some shopping elves may wish to contribute more than the suggested $100 gift value, we just ask that shoppers be mindful of providing equal value to siblings within the same household.
Please complete the form below if you are interested in sponsoring/shopping for a child or multiple children this holiday season. The identity of the shopper remains anonymous to the family and the identity of the family remains anonymous to the shopper. The shoppers are provided with a “wish list” for each child which includes their age, gender, items they are in need of, items they are hoping for, likes and dislikes. A Tree House staff member will send this information mid-November to begin shopping. You will be provided further instructions at time.
Gifts can be dropped off Tuesday, December 2nd, through Friday, December 5th from 9-4pm. To best serve our families, please have items delivered to the Tree House administrative offices no later than Monday, December 8th, 2025. The Tree House administrative offices are located at W4051 County Road NN Elkhorn, WI 53121. Thank you!
