Glimpses of the kids enjoying their gifts, singing Christmas carols and playing games made it evident how thoughtful the idea was to make this Christmas Special.

Says Sumit Singh Gandhi who initiated the 100 Santa Project, "We are associated with the Sounds of Silence which helps hearing impaired people and they were eager to give back to the society, so we decided to do this with them. They were happy to turn Santa for a day and wish to do this again next year. We also had like-minded individuals come together with a purpose, which was to be a Santa for a day."
