Santafied continues to bring hope through the message of Jesus’ love to underprivileged children in Pretoria and Stellenbosch. Santafied is expanding this year with a new Santafied Festival for older kids in Pretoria. While Stellenbosch maintains its beloved shoebox tradition, Pretoria introduces a festive market where children can choose gifts using personalized coupons. 


Your support helps make this experience possible, offering not just presents but a sense of love, hope, and joy.
