Dear Santa...We Need Warm Clothes
Santa Claus gets a lot of letters this time of year...millions of them, in fact. It can be overwhelming, so the man in red turns to the post office to get some help sorting them out. But his post office elves have noticed a change in the wish lists this year. A lot of kids aren't asking for iPads or X-boxes. They're not asking for hot wheels or dolls. They are asking for winter coats, for socks... or for help paying the heating bill. For more information you can call the Operation Santa hotline at (212) 330-3000 on go to: http://www.usps.com/communications/newsroom/2009/holiday/santa.htm

How do we help?
It is too bad children must be victims of adult actions
But it is more important that they have a roof, warm clothing, and food rather than toys. it is just as important to sustain the body as the soul.
