Secret Santa

Kiki Elves Make Merry during the Season of Giving

Krista LOVED everything about Christmas! The decorating, the cooking, the shopping and especially the gifting! Even when she was a tot, she’d wear her Santa hat to help pass out gifts and when older she was the organizer of the family’s Secret Santa List. We love remembering our gal’s spirit of generosity during this magical season so it’s only fitting to continue her holiday mischievousness with the Secret Santa Initiative. When it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Kiki elves will bestow gifts upon two or more worthy organizations working to make life merry and bright for others… especially kids! 

Elves at Work

• 2023: Our third Secret Santa season, Kiki Elves presented $1000 gifts to two young RI non-profits who spread cheer in our communities with their work. Meet Matthew’s Wish RI where one boys desire to bring toys to kids at Christmastime blossomed into an every season reason to supply toys and smiles to kids in RI. Then visit Sami’s Sendoffs to witness how one small child’s cancer journey inspired love and connection in a highschooler driving her to bring cheer to kids dealing with cancer. Congratulations to both these inspiring individuals and the families that support their efforts!
  
• 2022: Our second season, Kiki Elves presented $500 gifts to three RI non-profits who, like us, “Seed Good Deeds” in memory of a loved one. Visit Katie’s Fund for Kids, The Michael Lorenzen Foundation and Angel in Action RI to see what love can do!
  
• 2021: Our first season, we made merry and bright with a $1000 sponsorship for kids to participate in The Annual Gingerbread Decorating Contest at The Artists’ Exchange. And then to provide gifts for teens, our elves joined in to purchase $1000 worth of holiday Pajamas for The Annual RI Foster Forward Pajama Drive. 

The Krista Weller Burns Foundation is a US 501(c)(3) Non-Profit.
