You can also send your letter via the internet! The believe campaign goes through December 24th.  As being part of a wish family, I understand the value and importance of the wishes being granted. Its the special family time and memories of a lifetime that the families will forever cherish. I will be grateful for Make-A-Wish. The Believe campaign is a great way to show your support for Make-A-Wish, and the only thing you have to do is write a letter to Santa. I encourage everyone to participate!!!  I Believe! We Believe!  This is the website to learn more about the Believe campaign, write your letter online, or get the believe stationary to write your letter to Santa."
