About Us
Started in 1990, Special Kids Day began as a holiday event that provided an opportunity for children with special needs and their families to visit Santa Claus without having to face some of the obstacles that they might encounter when trying to experience a visit with Santa in a mall.
Over the years, through a combined effort among local businesses and community organizations, the Department of Education at Elmhurst College and dedicated individuals, Special Kids Day has grown to serve hundreds of families in the western suburbs.
Today, Special Kids Day has evolved into a not-for-profit,
501(c)(3) organization dedicated to providing celebratory events for children with disabilities and their families in environments designed to accommodate their special needs.
