Through the generous donations of several singers and actors, we are creating the 23rd annual compilation radio show-style recording titled “Holiday Magic, A Gift for Children of all Ages 2025.” The tale is shared by Jeffery the care deer and Santa Claus as they make their way from the North Pole to visit the children. They are joined by Jeffery’s cousin Carlito, who lives at the San Diego Safari Park, Kate the adventurous care deer from Milwaukee, Mrs. Claus, Trixie the Jersey care deer, and Thalion, Master Elf, who runs Santa’s workshop! Our 2025 Jeffery the surfer care deer and Santa theme is Kindness Connects Us, Always! And the story title is "Jingles' Holiday Jingle-Bell Hijinx," written and donated by Phillip Tanzilo.

Our goal is to brighten the holidays for the children spending the season at a Children’s Hospital and their siblings.  Last year, over 7,000 copies of the Care Deer Packs were delivered to Children’s Hospitals internationally, and they were thrilled to have them and distribute them to their patients!
This year’s goal is to produce and deliver a minimum of 7,000 copies, which will be distributed nationwide, as well as to London and Singapore in December. Please consider donating a minimum of $50 or more. No amount is too big or too small. Your gift is much needed and immensely appreciated!  Every donation goes toward gifting a Care Deer Pack to a child,” says Gelder. “This is a labor of love that is received with much joy by children who are unfortunately spending the holiday season in the hospital and their siblings, who often crave attention due to so much being given to the ailing member of their family,” Gelder said. “We appreciate all donations! The more donations, the more children that will be receiving a Care Deer Package.”  Thank you for your time and consideration. Make it a happy holiday season!
