Ho ho ho! Greetings, dear friends, both young and old! It’s your jolly old Santa Claus here, and I want to share a little about what makes this time of year so special for me.

Every December, I have the incredible joy of visiting children who are spending their holidays in hospitals, houses of safety, and orphanages. I know that being away from home, especially during the festive season, can be tough, but that’s why I’m so thankful to be part of the Golfing 4 Teddy family. Together, we bring a little magic, a little hope, and a whole lot of love to these brave boys and girls.

When I walk into a room with my sack full of teddy bears, the smiles on the children’s faces light up the whole world. It’s as if, for a moment, all their worries melt away, and they’re reminded that they’re not alone—that there’s a big, caring community thinking of them. Each teddy bear we give is more than just a toy; it’s a symbol of comfort, a companion to hold onto during the hard times, and a reminder that someone cares.

I’ve had the honor of delivering these teddy bears for many years now, and I must say, it’s the highlight of my Christmas season. The courage and strength these children show is nothing short of amazing. And when I see their eyes sparkle as they cuddle their new teddy, it fills my heart with so much warmth and joy.

This mission is made possible by all the wonderful people who support Golfing 4 Teddy—the golfers, the sponsors, the volunteers, and everyone who believes in the power of giving. To all of you, I tip my hat (or should I say, my Santa hat!) in gratitude.

So, to every child who’s received a teddy from Santa, know this: you are cherished, you are strong, and you are never alone. And to everyone else, thank you for helping make this magic happen. Together, we’re spreading joy and making the world a brighter place, one teddy bear at a time.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

With love, Santa Claus 🎅
