Children Who Lost Father In Montville Ask Santa For Basketball Hoop

MONTVILLE, CT — Writing a letter to Santa is a treasured tradition for many Montville families. They’re a lens into the magic of the holiday season through the eyes of a child.

We’ve partnered with T-Mobile so we can all share in their joy. This letter, submitted by Michele Beers in Montville, was written by 12 & 13-year-old Jada and Davian:

“We lost our Dad in November and this Christmas is very sad. We would both like a basketball hoop. Our apartment complex doesn't have one. We would really like something outside to enjoy. PS we don't have basketballs either
Thank you.”

Santa is waiting to hear from your kids, too. Click here to fill out the form, and you can submit a photo if you’d like.

Please note: Your (child’s) letter may be shared with your community to help spread holiday cheer. All fulfillment requests need to be routed separately to the North Pole and/or Santa himself. In other words, these letters are just for fun: Santa won’t be checking the lists on Patch.
