Correios Santa Claus campaign starts next Tuesday in Minas Gerais

One of the most awaited solidarity campaigns for children, Santa Claus at the Post Office, will be officially launched next Tuesday, the 14th, in Minas Gerais. The good deed has been going on for 34 years. The Post Office receives and makes available letters written by students enrolled up to the 5th year in public schools and by children in socially vulnerable situations, up to 10 years of age.

How to send a letter
To encourage creativity and writing practice, letters must be handwritten. Sending can be done in two ways: at post offices and via the Campaign Blog https://blognoel.correios.com.br/ For letters sent digitally, it is necessary to photograph or scan them to send to the blog. It is important to send a clear image so that the message can be read and understood by Santa Claus. Letters that meet the criteria established by the action are made available for adoption on the Campaign Blog. Those containing the address, telephone number or photo of the child will not be selected.

The little ones’ requests are very varied: balls, dolls, shoes and school materials. To make everything come true, the agencies count on the help of thousands of godparents willing to make the magic of Christmas happen. Anyone can participate in the campaign and make a child happy. Other information will be released at launch.
