										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year and a special time to show others you care. Families come together and show one another love and how they value each other.</p>
<p>One Of the most popular tradition games is a “Secret Santa”, where people anonymously gift each other, as an act of love and rejoice.</p>
<p>Secret Santa is primarily a Western tradition. A philanthropist named Larry Dean Stewart is thought to be the &#8220;original Secret Santa&#8221;, who came up with the idea of giving anonymous gifts during the holidays.</p>
<p>For more than 25 years, Stewart secretly donated $100 bills to people in Kansas, according to USA TODAY. He also donated $25,000 in the form of $100 bills to New Yorkers after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. It wasn&#8217;t until 2006 that Stewart came out as the &#8220;Secret Santa&#8221; everyone had been wondering about for so long.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve played Secret Santa before, you know the drill: A group of people are assigned to buy a gift for another person anonymously. The game is named like so because the gift receivers have no idea who their &#8220;secret Santa&#8221; is.</p>
<p>Oftentimes, secret Santas will draw names out of a hat to determine who they need to buy a gift for. In many versions of the game, people try to guess who their secret Santa is after they&#8217;ve opened their gift.</p>
<p>The idea of starting Secret Santa in the workplace has been a very good decision as it brings some excitement amidst daily hoards of work.</p>
<p>Everyone can write their names on a random sheet of paper and people can pick up any random name, all the while keeping it a secret. There are Secret Santa generators as well that automate and generate a name among your colleagues to gift.</p>
<p>Many companies, Indian firms, MNCs have embraced this Western tradition because it is a great way to initiate bonding between employees and the company.</p>
