Santa’s Workshop and Community Toy Drive

Sunday, December 6, 2026
10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Erickson Alumni Center

The holiday season is one of the most meaningful times for our community to give back. This year, in partnership with the Erickson Alumni Center and West Virginia Black Bears, we’re expanding our annual Community Toy Drive into Santa’s Workshop and Community Toy Drive, a holiday celebration benefiting pediatric patients at WVU Medicine Golisano Children’s.

Join us for activities, crafts, cookies and cocoa, and, of course, a visit with Santa Claus! Along with enjoying the festivities, community members will have the opportunity to donate gifts to help brighten hospital stays for our patients.

These gifts bring comfort, joy, and support to children and families, not only during the holidays, but throughout the year.

How to Participate

Community members are invited to donate new, unwrapped toys, games, and items for children of all ages. Simply drive up and drop off your donations, our elves will be ready to help!

Additional details on how to participate in Santa’s Workshop will be shared soon.

Thank you for your support. Your generosity helps create moments of joy for our patients year-round.
