For the first time in history, our employees and the general public will be able to fulfill the holiday wishes of needy children in South Florida through a Santa Letter Program.
On Tuesday, December 1, Santa's postal elves will be stationed in the lobbies of the Fort Lauderdale Main Office, Miami GMF Postal Store, South Florida Retail Unit, and West Palm Beach Main Office from 9 am to 11 am. Employees (off the clock) and customers will be able to complete an application to select a child's Santa letter available at a later date. They'll also be able to sign up at these locations Monday through Friday, 8 am to 5 pm.
Fort Lauderdale Main Office, 1900 West Oakland Park Blvd, Fort Lauderdale
Coordinator: Tashia Romano-Kravitz at 954-527-3281
Miami GMF Postal Store, 2200 NW 72 Avenue, Miami

To protect children and their privacy, volunteers will receive a photocopy, instead of the original letter. The photocopy will have personal information, including name and address, blackened out. Volunteers will purchase their gifts and bring them back to one of the above locations (not necessarily the one where the photocopy was picked up) to pay for the Priority Mail postage to have items shipped to the recipient. Holiday packages must be returned to one of the designated locations on or before 5 pm on December 23.
