Religious diatribes aside, the Holidays are a GREAT time to give back to your community, while spirits are high and needs are at their greatest!
Once again, Miss Ginger's other persona is proud to be a part of Macy's "Believe" campaign, inviting people young and old to write letter to Santa expressing their wishes and hopes for the holiday season! Every Macy's store across the country has a special Macy's mailbox and a "Believe Meter" that tracks the wishes as they are received! Macy's will count up the wishes, make a $1 donation to the "Make a Wish" foundation for each one, and then forward to Santa at the North Pole for him to check against his "naughty or nice" list! Our goal is to donate $1,000,000 to Make a Wish. So far, the Believe Meter says we are a little over halfway there, so we need everyone's help to make sure we receive enough letters!!
Won't you write a letter to share your wish with Santa, and help the Make a Wish Foundation grant the wishes of a child in need? You can go to Santa's Post Office to download stationery, find a mailbox, or even see what some of your favorite celebrities have wished for this year!
Once you've written your letter, just take it to any Macy's store (you know you'll be going there several times this season, anyway!) and drop it into the mailbox. It's that easy to do something great for someone who really needs a smile this year!
If you drop your letter on on December 10th, 2010, Macy's will DOUBLE it's donation as they join Make a Wish in celebrating National Believe Day!!!
And, on December 17th, at 8pm EST, 7pm CST, tune into CBS Television for "Yes, Virginia- The Animated Special, brought to you by Macy's!
(This trailer has last year's date. The 2010 screening is December 17th)
If you believe in Miss Ginger, surely you believe in Santa Claus! And, while you're at it, why not leave Miss Ginger a comment and tell her why you believe!

I believe in Miss Ginger because I've gotten drunk with the Ho more than once!!!
Macy's is such a great company when it comes to community involvement and charity work ... I wish more were like it. Can you imagine what a great world we'd live in if Wall Street firms like Goldman Sachs actually shared some of their billions?!?
XOXOXOXO
I believe in Miss Ginger but I stopped believing in Santa when I was 7. We will not discuss how many years ago that was.
In the spirit of community involvement though, I sat through a three and a half hour training session last night in hopes of becoming a mentor. (It's pretty much like the Big Brothers Big Sisters program.)
And of course when I think of Macy's and Santa, I think of this.

Don't worry though. Santa has been hired at a restaurant in the Union Square area. For twice what Macy's was paying him.
Oops. I forgot to use proper tags for the link.
I have been reading your blog and i just love it , good lucki
I believe in a good cause, and all of yours are awesome :o)
I believe that doing good things all of the year is the way to live. I believe in the spirit of generousity and Santa just puts name ad face to the practice.
Hey Miss G-does Macy decorate the windows at the old Marshall Fields in Chicago? MBC
