Writing a letter to Santa can help grant a sick child's Christmas wish in Phoenix.
Macy's is donating $1, up to $1 million, to the Make-A-Wish foundation for every stamped letter to Santa delivered to Macy's Santa letterboxes at every Macy's store throughout the country.
The 5th Annual Macy's Believe campaign benefiting Make-A-Wish encourages people of all ages to write letters and help make the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
All of the funds raised by letters to Santa in Phoenix will go directly to supporting wishes to kids in our region. The campaign started Nov. 2 and ends Dec. 24.
National Believe Day is on Dec. 14, where Macy's and Make-A-Wish will grant dozens of wishes across the country.
