    Greetings from Toronto Canada
    I can’t believe this been running for 10 years.
    I just stumble crosses recently and have really been enjoying all the generosity that the East Idaho news team and see Santa has been giving to all the deserving people in Idaho. Each little episode, you find a family that’s very deserving of the secret Santa gifts. Sometimes the families or the individuals in the little clips makes you cry and your heart breaks for them because of all the tragedy that has fallen upon them.
    Thank you secret Santa for giving all these gifts to these deserving families.

    I'm from Indiana. I watch secret Santa every year. While it is amazing to see his/her generosity, these videos mean more to me than that. Every year I see that God is good, faithful and merciful. I know every year my worries truly are small. To see the struggle of others I can be thankful for the blessings He provides in my life every day. Thank you God. Thank you Secret Santa.

    I know this is such a small detail in comparison to all the amazing things you do, but the way you introduce and include the camera person just gets me every time. They aren't just a faceless employee. It really speaks to the depth of your character and shows that your kindness goes beyond the camera.

    I’m a 75 year old woman, 76 in 2 months. I to am crying. This is such a wonderful thing to do. The lady with the tree out front of their house, that she wanted cut down. When she said her daughter had to write about the best part of Christmas for school, I couldn’t believe that her daughter wrote about the secret Santa and all the wonderful things he/she does for the people of Idaho. Something tells me her daughter was hoping secret Santa would stop at her house someday. Blessings to whoever your secret Santa is. What a wonderful thing to do. I have been a giver as far back as I can remember. I am not wealthy at all but I know the feeling of being able to bring happiness to others. Merry Christmas everyone.
