On December 18, 2025, Desert Cove Elementary School welcomed a holiday event coordinated by the Phoenix Police Department, Fox 10 News, and Secret Santa World. The initiative aimed to bring seasonal cheer to both staff members and third-grade students.

During the visit, representatives from Secret Santa World and its ELFs (Ever Lasting Friend) distributed candy canes and coloring books to students. As part of the activity, they shared the story of Secret Santa and discussed the value of kindness.

Secret Santa World stated: “The compassion shared from one spontaneous random act of kindness is elevating, priceless and not easily explained. It is an instant connection between souls that can change a life forever.”

Additionally, some staff at Desert Cove received a hundred-dollar bill as part of the celebration.

Fox 10 News will air coverage of this event on Christmas Day at 5:30 p.m.
