Description
Chanse is spending Christmas with his grandparents in Sakitawak when they have a wonderful idea. They will create a huge advent calendar for the community with all of the children's names so that they will all receive a toy at Christmas. With the help of Chanse's computer skills they announce the plan and draw the first name on December 1.
As the local businesses and community members learn of the calendar, the donations of gifts come in so that every child in Sakitawak will be able to have their name drawn.
Watching from the North Pole, Santa and Mrs Claus are delighted with the spirit of giving shown by Chanse and his family...and they have an idea of how to get gifts to children all across the north with Chanse's help.
