TORONTO SANTA SHUFFLERS - WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE YOU THIS YEAR!

Come join the fun and run, walk or roll in Wilket Creek Park on Saturday, December 6, 2025, to support The Gateway Drop-in!

Use the entrance located at 1132 Leslie Street, Toronto, Ontario (just north of Eglinton Avenue) to discover our Athletes’ Village.

Festivities will begin at 9:00 a.m. with opening ceremonies at 9:40 a.m.
The 5 K Fun Run and 1K Elf Walk will start at 10:00 a.m.

All funds raised through the 2025 Toronto Santa Shuffle will go directly to The Salvation Army Gateway, a seventy-eight-bed shelter and Drop-in centre for individuals experiencing homelessness and marginalization in Downtown Toronto.

Our in-person Gateway Drop-in program operates weekly on Tuesday and Friday. This program enables us to offer critical harm reduction support and social activities that foster a stronger sense of community among individuals in Downtown Toronto. We also serve our community members lunch each Tuesday and Friday and offer them hot take-away meals three additional nights each week.

We were able to fully fund our 2025 Drop-in event thanks to the money raised through last year’s Toronto Santa Shuffle.

With your help, we hope to do the same in 2026!
