    I will tell you this. When my exwife and I were raising our children. I lost my job 2 wks before Christmas. A local place found out that we would not be having a Christmas. They and the local High School bought presents and gave food and they even bought presents for my wife and I. I said one day I would repay it. 10 yrs later I sponsored a young pair of girls living on their own. I saved my change for one year. $900 and those girls had a wonderful Christmas. I paid it forward and so can you.

    The thing I love about these guys, compared to others doing it, is that they don’t try to milk it. If the person is overwhelmed and quiet, they just pass them the gifts, and then leave them alone with love. So wholesome and beautiful. You’re doing such lovely work. Thank you Secret Santa, from Liverpool UK. ❤

    My 17 year old daughter and I was the target of our little towns secret Santa . My husband (her father) passed away in May. A few months ago we received a card “from a friend” with cash. Then last night we heard the doorbell by the time we got to the door the person was gone. Two big bags of presents for us. Though this year has had a lot of heartache we have truly been blessed. So thankful for the Secret Santa’s they do make a difference in this crazy world.

    Seeing how you take care of people with disabilities and health issues makes me so happy. I take care of my father that got in a bad wreck in Dec. 2018 in west valley he was thrown from the car had a broken neck. They told him he would be on a feeding tube for the rest of his life but he tried eating then was able to eat some soft foods. Now is off feeding tube and has a metal plate in his throat. Still has trouble eating. When he was in the Int. Mt. Hospital my mother was bed ridden and they was in the same hospital at the same time. Then my mother went to care place in and out. I took care of both of them. Then my mother passed in April 2020. Then I just moved my dad in with me and my son in syracuse because he now has blood cancer. I know that watching how you have cared for many. You will be blessed. I know how hard it is to care for those that need help. I love to hear how my dad tells me he loves how I have taken good care of him. I also know how blessed I am to of taken care of both of them. I love how you have cared for those people. Your great. Sub for Santa you are wonderful and blessed. Thanks for taking care of many. Love watching.

      Yes sales increased and the upper echelon of people in the tax brackets had their wealth increase an order of magnitude.
      Taxes are immense at that bracket.
      Especially with car dealerships and when you own alot of them you pay alot.
      But if you donate to charities then thr amount you pay decreases alot.
      Bill gates and others donate to their own charities so they really just launder their own money to avoid paying taxes.
      So whoever this secret santa is decided to not pay into some shady "clinton foundation" type organizations and actually make some people happy with their tax breaks.
      Beautiful really.
      Often i wish i could be as fortunate but then i remember that im still breathing, i have a warm meal and thats all anyone really needs.

      @@sneezing1957 You are right, there are good people everywhere, but what I love about what I see in these videos is the sense of community. I have lived many place, different states, cities and community culture varies greatly from place to place. Some places tightness in community is non-existent. Also, outward expression of faith and being okay to live with little and even feeling blessed with the bare minimum is not something you experience everywhere.

To reach out and tell someone you're not alone in this fight, I'm here with you. Whatever it is, pay it forward. My family don't have much but we have each other and we know what it feels like to go without, so this year we decided to pay it forward instead. We just count our blessings that we're all together to see another year to come. May God bless everyone reading this.

    I live in an apartment complex. I don’t have a lot money. But I work a lot during the holidays because it’s available at my job. I’m lucky there. I’m also a smoker. So I spend most of my time on my patio.
    Every December, we pick out two random apartments. Usually people I see coming and going that do good deeds. Figure out which apartment is theirs. On Christmas Eve, my husband and I slide a Christmas card under their door with $50 in each card. It’s not a lot, but it’s a nice way to thank someone for being a kind person.
    We always run away laughing down the hallway after we slide the card under the door. It’s kinda become a fun Christmas tradition with us.
    We also never say who the card is from. I don’t want anything in return. I just wanna thank someone for being a good person.
