Santa letter

December 16 marks the last day for letter adoptions!

For anyone still considering adopting a letter by participating in USPS Operation Santa, but thinks it is too late, the U.S. Postal Service wants customers to know there is still time.

To help participants expedite their shopping experience after the adoption process, this year the Postal Service unrolled an online e-commerce catalog for the fulfillment of gifts. Santa’s Gift Shoppe is an online option developed exclusively for USPS Operation Santa letter adopters. The Postal Service and Toys“R”Us have teamed up to make it easier for participants to shop for the ideal gift and ship it from the comfort of their homes with just a click.

The online catalog boasts a selection of toys and gifts from Toys“R”Us, allowing letter adopters to find something special for each letter writer, while the integration with shipping options from the Postal Service, such as USPS Ground Advantage, helps ensure that gifts are affordable to ship and arrive in time for the holidays.

Adopting a letter to Santa is as easy as 1, 2, 3! Help make someone’s holiday wishes come true by sending the perfect gift today.

The United States Postal Service is an independent federal establishment, mandated to be self-financing and to serve every American community through the affordable, reliable and secure delivery of mail and packages to 169 million addresses six and often seven days a week. Overseen by a bipartisan Board of Governors, the Postal Service is implementing a 10-year transformation plan, Delivering for America, to modernize the postal network, restore long-term financial sustainability, dramatically improve service across all mail and shipping categories, and maintain the organization as one of America’s most valued and trusted brands.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
