As Christmas approached, a couple living in New York City began receiving letters addressed to Santa, but strangely, with their address on the envelope.
"Our address is not in the North Pole," says Jim. "Kids seem to think that Santa Claus lives in Chelsea." Over the month of December, the couple received over 450 letters from all over the State. Despite researching possible reasons for the mysterious letters, neither Jim nor Dylan could arrive at any conclusions.
As the letters piled up, Dylan says he started to care little about why they were receiving the letters and more about what they could do to help. They knew they couldn't let the letters keep piling up, so they began opening. In the video produced by The New York Times, Jim reads a letter from a 10-year-old girl from the Bronx begging Santa to help her mom out by bringing her family presents.
"It's more emotional that I thought it would be," says Dylan. Jim begins by taking the letters to his office and asking coworkers to take one letter each. Then he posted one of the letters on Facebook and received a huge response.
In the end, the self described two little elves were able to fulfill about half the letters. Bless you both.
