Christmas Daddies is a not-for-profit organization whos main directive is to help less fortunate children in the Maritime provinces have a better Christmas.
The organization has been hosting a pledge-based variety show telethon since 1964.
The concept originated in Halifax and was an effort put forward by the staff, who volunteered their time to put the telethon on. In the true Maritime spirit, the telethon embodies the warmth and generosity of the community through dedicated volunteers and generous donors.
