Celebrating its 100-year anniversary, the Postal Service's Letters to Santa program has made holiday dreams come true for children in need for decades. This year, the tradition kicks off at the largest Letters to Santa location in the country, inside the famous James A. Farley Building located at 481 Eighth Ave at 33rd Street in NYC.
Letters to Santa is a letter adoption program enabling members of the public and charitable organizations to respond to children's letters addressed to Santa Claus. NYC's "Operation Santa" opens to the public Dec. 5th, 2012. Potential Saint Nicks can adopt letters 9 a.m. to 4 p.m, Monday thru Saturday and on Thursdays until 7 p.m. Customers will be asked to provide valid identification and sign official Operation Santa organization or individual participation forms before being allowed to select letters for adoption. visit www.usps.com for more info.
