Melissa Stinsman, a post office employee in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, helps answer letters written to Santa. She volunteers to spend about four hours a night "helping" Santa Claus answer the mountain of letters he receives during the holidays.
“I usually tell kids to watch their grades and listen to their parents,” Stinsman said. “One asked for a science playset, so I told him he could be a scientist one day.”
However, one child’s letter to Santa really stood out. Inside the envelope, in which there were three letters, the woman found a note with the inscription: “Dear Santa, you didn’t notice me last year, so I hope you will notice this year, and this year I will be fine.”

The letter also had a list that included typical gifts, such as Lego constructors and various toys, but it ended with two unusual requests: food and clothing for his family. There was another list in the envelope from the boy’s 5-year-old brother.
Although there was no return address in the letter, the boy indicated his full name. After asking her colleagues, the postman found another carrier who recognized the name, and together they were able to find the boy’s house.
Stinsman contacted the family and organized a fundraiser at the post office.
“We raised about $500,” she told Yahoo Lifestyle, “and people brought food to the post office.”
The packages were delivered to the family's home on Christmas Eve. Before leaving her things, Stinsman said, “I hope the kids will be distracted when I get there. I want them to believe that Santa brought it all.”
