Coburn, Pennsylvania —

We just received a jar this morning. It was left sometime overnight, outside our garage door. I had never heard of this tradition and honestly am sitting here crying as I write this. My fiancée was laid off in March due to Covid and I’m at home with a newborn & homeschooling 3 other young children. We have been doing odd jobs to make ends meet and were wondering how Christmas would go this year, how to explain to them that Santa didn’t have enough to go around this year. I have no idea who would’ve done this for our family but to know there’s someone out there who thinks so highly of us is incredible. In times like these, it certainly makes me have faith in others again. Thank you so much. I hope next year we are able to do this for someone else.
