Christmas is just a week away and you might be busy with your Celebration plans.
Yes, this festival is all about fun and bonding with people who are close to us.
Decorating the tree, packing gifts for our family and friends, planning dinners and reading special stories and jingles to our children; this is the beauty of Christmas.
For kids the festival holds even more importance.
For them it's all about getting the gifts they were waiting for all the year long.
When we were kids we used to do the same.
Waiting anxiously for Santa Claus to come and keep the present alongside our bed.
Of course that time we didn't know that it's our parents who are the real Santa's.
But has the tradition changed? No it's the same and we appreciate it too as it makes our children more aware about their culture and reaffirms their belief in Father Christmas.
But not every family is able to do the same.
They are financially unable to cater to the little requests their kids have made in their Santa's letters.
There are millions of such kids across the globe who are anxiously waiting for their gifts, that are actually never to come.
You can extend your help to such kids and make this Christmas of theirs Brighter.
Isn't this the real spirit of Christmas? There is a popular program by USPS named Operation Letter to Santa Claus.
The program is aimed to bring happiness in the lives of kids whose innocent letters reach the postal department every year.
You might be surprised to know that US postal services receives thousands of such letters every year that describe the financial inability of their parents.
You can adopt any of those letters and return them with the presents that the child has asked for.
For privacy concerns the postal department removes the address slip and sends the present for you.
In addition to this you can also help needy kids by donating at specific charities and NGO'S that work for the development of children.
You can also contact the orphanage nearest to you and send some goodies and games there.
Another idea can be to contact your church authorities and I am very sure that they would happily guide you on ways you can help kids.
So are you up for this fulfilling experience this year on the occasion of Christmas?
