So to begin, I gave my Santa quite the unique request in my likes/dislikes form for this exchange. I've been doing Reddit Gifts for a little over a year now, and I've always requested gifts based on my own likes/dislikes. This time I did something different. You see, right now I'm in the process of organizing a fundraiser for the Kelly Anne Dolan Memorial Fund. This organization provides for families caring for children with serious illnesses, disabilities, and injuries, all while respecting the pride and dignity of families in need. They provide financial assistance for needs not covered by insurance, such as paying an electric bill for a family, covering parking expenses for families who have to pay to visit their child in the hospital every day, or even paying for the funeral of a child who has passed away. Part of the fundraiser I'm organizing includes a "tricky tray" or "raffle basket auction" to raise funds for the organization. So, using the "colors" exchange as a theme, I asked my Santa if they could provide some items that would fit into a color-themed basket. I gave them a few ideas of what I meant by that, but left the color, theme, and items all up to them. I figured even if I just got an item or two, I could then turn it into its own basket with the help of other donors (local businesses, my family, etc.)

My Santa went so above and beyond, and gave enough items for an entire basket at the fundraiser! They made all of the items my favorite color, and created an entire spa-day basket! I even got blue easter grass and curly ribbon to help make the basket complete.

To top it all off, I got the most touching handwritten note.

Thank you for your generosity, Santa. This basket is sure to be a hit at the fundraiser, and the funds raised will go to a great cause!
