Release your inner elf

If you are looking for a meaningful way to support your local community this year, check out Elf Squad Inc – and The Elf Squad Elf Factory.

Now in its seventh year, Elf Squad Inc is the little Geelong-based charity that makes a BIG difference to thousands of local children and teens-in-need.

Elf Squad Inc’s network of volunteer elves now collect more physical Christmas gift donations than any other local charity.

“Locals support Elf Squad because they know we don’t have ANY paid employees, offices, big ad campaigns or overheads,” Elf Squad Inc founder Stephanie Beitzel says.

“They love knowing EVERY toy and tax-deductible donation will ONLY be used to help families across our region who are seriously struggling.”

Each December, Elf Squad Inc also runs its iconic Elf Squad Elf Factory.

You can join hundreds of elves, young and old, to sort toys, print paper and wrap thousands of presents as you listen to Christmas classics, enjoy festive treats and make magical memories.

This truly unique and heart-warming experience is $15 per adult, $10 concession, $5 per child, $30 per family. Bookings essential. All proceeds to Elf Squad Inc.
