As Christmas is near, Brazil celebrates early as Santa Claus arrives in his unique way, making this holiday season one to remember.
Like every year, Santa Claus would come on his sleigh with reindeer. Instead, he arrived in style aboard a jet ski, skimming over the waters of Rio de Janeiro city’s river.
His unique arrival was part of an event, organized by The NGO Heroes of Love, which helps patients with disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy, and other syndromes, joined with the Fire Brigade to distribute presents for around 50 children and their parents.
The initiative brought not only gifts but also a powerful message of hope, showing the greatest gift is the feeling of being seen and cared for, especially during the holiday season.
