About the Drive
Every child deserves to experience the joy of receiving a gift during the holiday season. Stuff the Sled helps make that possible by collecting holiday gifts for children and families across West Michigan.
For some families, the holidays can bring added financial pressure, making it difficult to afford gifts. Stuff the Sled brings our community together to help make sure children have something special to unwrap and enjoy.
Together, we can fill the sled with gifts, spread a little extra holiday joy, and help make the season brighter for children in our community.
A huge thank you to our 2026 sponsors, the magic makers
