Secrets Santa's of Wellsville began 15 years ago with a little unknown act of kindness.
A neighbor of ours's had lost his wife just before Christmas.
The two had a son and a daughter. Both were young enough to still believe in Santa Claus.
I asked the dad what he was going to do? He said, "I don't know she always took care of Christmas."
It was that moment I knew I had to help.
Later that evening, I sat my boys down who were classmates with the son.
We discussed the situation and the boys offered to help by giving their Christmas gifts to the neighbors.
So that's what we did, we wrapped up the gifts dropped them off.
This one act of kindness sparked an idea that turned into our mission.
Make sure that no kid in Wellsville wakes up Christmas morning without a gift.
This simple mission statement has driven our purpose.
