 About Jaxon's Christmas Gift

Jaxon's Christmas Gift is an incredible initiative driven by a mission to bring comfort and joy to children facing challenging times at McMaster Children's Hospital. It was started in honour of Jaxon, a remarkable young boy who has spent significant time in the hospital. In 2017 Jaxon’s buddy was admitted over the holidays. Worried about his sweet friend at Christmas, he asked how Santa would find her and the nurse told him that the hospital was Santa’s first stop. His wish since was that all the children there could also experience the magic of Christmas, even if they couldn't be home. 

This campaign works tirelessly to gather funds and donations to provide all the love, festive decorations, and essential support to children and their families during the holiday season, turning hospital rooms into places of warmth and cheer.

Come on out, get a festive or classic flash tattoo, and help us ensure every child at McMaster Children's Hospital has a little Christmas magic this year!

We can't wait to see you there! 

Childhood Cancer is something near and dear to our hearts in this community, with at least 6 Little Fighters currently battling different forms, and stages of this awful disease.
