About the organization
Colour Me Christmas is a social enterprise that focuses on celebrating diversity within the holiday season. We sell ethnic and international holiday home décor, children’s toys, publish holiday books, create diverse holiday content as well as provide a racially diverse Santa for your next event.
Our aim is to sell products that allow BIPOC individuals to feel included and celebrated during the holiday season because there is nothing worse than walking through the aisles of a store and not seeing yourself represented. Our products deliver joy through inclusion with a sprinkle of Christmas magic.
We are a social enterprise that gives back to pediatric healthcare in honour of the lifesaving care received by our infant son during his first Christmas.
We believe that Christmas can be for everyone because the holiday season represents JOY, COMMUNITY & IMPACT to us. It is not about religious dogma or exclusion. We understand that the Christmas season can feel isolating and stressful to many so we hope our presence can infuse a sense of happiness and belonging for all.
Currently the business is going through a PIVOT and we are aiming to focus more on our services than our products. We are also looking to change the name and rebrand to make it a more year round business.
