What is the eJoulupuu collection?
eJoulupuu is a fundraising campaign, which Joulupuu ry and Kotimaanapu organizes together to raise funds to help children and young people in disadvantaged positions. The eJoulupuu collection allows for monetary donations, as in Joulupuu collections, only physical Christmas gifts and gift cards are accepted, not monetary donations.
With the funds left over from purchasing gifts, discretionary support is provided to children and young people in the areas, such as covering the costs of hobbies, sudden emergencies, or organizing enjoyable activities, such as a theater outings.
- The eJoulupuu collection uses Kotimaanapu's fundraising permit and instrument. The collection costs are a maximum of 15% of the raised funds. Collection permit RA/2020/639. Of the collection costs, 1/3 is allocated to Joulupuu ry's operational costs and 2/3 to Kotimaanapu's eJoulupuu operation costs. The remainder (at least 85% of the funds raised) is directly allocated as gifts, gift cards, or funds to the local Joulupuu locations to help children and young people in disadvantaged positions.
We cooperate with S-Business to ensure that help reaches those in need with eJoulupuu funds. We give our local collection recipients (social services etc.) access to our S-Business account, through which they can grant prepaid cards to gift recipients, and they can purchase exactly what they need directly from the store they want using the card for the payment.

What is the Joulupuu collection?
The Joulupuu collection has been organized throughout Finland since 2000. In 2022, we collected gifts in 130 locations! The Joulupuu collection collects Christmas gifts for children and young people in disadvantaged positions who might otherwise be without Christmas gifts. All gift packages brought to the collection are delivered, for example, to children and young people in the local social welfare system. The collection recipients vary by location.
The Joulupuu collection is non-profit activity. Each collection is organized locally by a local organizing team. The collections are organized by various organizations throughout Finland, such as Junior Chambers, local associations of Mannerheim League for Child Welfare, Lions Clubs, or Joulupuu ry's corporate partners. Joulupuu ry grants organizing permits and supports local collections.

eJoulupuu collection collection costs
All professionally conducted charity collections have collection costs. The collection costs of the eJoulupuu collection are a maximum of 15% of the funds raised, which according to research is a very low collection cost percentage (more information: https://www.vala.fi/b/lahjoitusten-kayttoa-tehostettaisiin-uudistamalla-rahankerayskulujen-verotusta). The eJoulupuu collection is conducted in cooperation with Kotimaanapu, using their fundraising permit and fundraising platform. Kotimaanapu is a member of Vala ry, the Finnish Fundraising Association.
The collection costs consist of verified costs related to organizing the Joulupuu collection. Of this amount, two-thirds goes to Kotimaanapu, who maintains the eJoulupuu collection, and one-third goes to Joulupuu ry. All operational costs are reported to the National Police Board. Collection permit RA/2020/639.
Kotimaanapu is responsible, for example, for the bookkeeping of the eJoulupuu collection, coding and maintenance of the donation platform, monitoring the use of funds, and practical matters related to distributing the funds.
Joulupuu ry currently has three part-time employees, who support the local organizers and take care of the administration and management of national collections. The organization also supports local volunteer collectors by providing them with free package cards and offering them small financial support to cover the costs of organizing the collections (such as packaging materials, fuel costs, refreshments). Joulupuu ry also holds trainings for local volunteers to ensure responsible organization of the collection.
There are nearly 300 local eJoulupuu collections, and organizing, coordinating, and monitoring them is a big task. Managing the use of collection funds also comes with a great responsibility, and preventing misuse is crucial. This work is carried out by paid professionals, while volunteers focus on organizing local gift collections as voluntary work (with support from the organization). It would not be possible to carry out the eJoulupuu collection as a complete act of charity in a way that 100% of the funds raised would go to the donation recipients. The collection costs are also communicated at the time of donating.
