Speakers August 19th, 2025 - Niki and Adam Ellis - Be Claus Charity

 

Adam and Niki Ellis are the co-founders of Be Claus Charity. Both have been born and raised in Kingston and have been raising their 2 boys here. They created their not-for-profit corporation in November of 2023 and received charitable status with the CRA in January of 2024. 

 

Adam also works full time as a game designer and builder for Improbable escapes and Niki is a certified professional bookkeeper and is the owner of her own cleaning business. The charity is their new passion that they hope to manage for a long time to come!

From their website;

“Be Claus Charity is striving to make children feel special. We organize makers to create custom made gifts that are designed for a specific child. We also aim to provide free workshops and makerspaces so kids can have a place to go to learn and create their own ideas, instilling a sense of pride and self worth in them.”
