The aim of this annual event is to collect Christmas presents for selected beneficiaries, dedicated to helping under-privileged children and children from child-headed homes in the Durban area who would not normally receive a gift at Christmas, or whom have never owned a toy.
The community are encouraged to take along and donate an unwrapped toy or gift for either a boy or girl, on the evening. For those who will not be attending but would like to donate, gifts can be dropped off at the Umhlanga Tourism office, opposite Granada Square between 9am and 5pm on the day.
