Dear Santa Holiday Gift Giveaway 2026
Presented by General Air Conditioning and Plumbing & KESQ
The magic of the holiday season is all about giving, spreading kindness, and making a difference in the lives of others. This year, General Air Conditioning and Plumbing and KESQ are proud to bring that magic to families throughout the Coachella Valley through our Dear Santa Holiday Gift Giveaway!
The holidays can be a challenging time for many families, and sometimes, a little extra kindness can make all the difference. Together, we’re helping Santa make the season brighter for 20 local families, delivering special gifts and bringing smiles, excitement, and holiday cheer to children and parents throughout our community.
Throughout November, local families are encouraged to write a letter to Santa sharing their holiday wishes. Whether it’s a new pair of shoes, a favorite toy, or something special for Mom and Dad — Santa and his helpers want to hear from you!
PLUS! One lucky Coachella Valley homeowner will receive a brand-new HVAC system, courtesy of General Air Conditioning and Plumbing — a perfect gift for a family in need this winter. If your home’s heating or cooling system is outdated or not working properly, be sure to mention it in your letter to Santa.
