Melania has been busy spreading the holiday cheer lately. The first lady who is very passionate about helping our military and children, has visited holiday toy drives sponsored by the military, and has helped raise funds for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program.

"As my fist year as first lady comes to an end, I have had the privilege to witness the spirit and resilience of so many people in our country. After this year's devastating hurricane season, I hope everyone watching at home will consider giving back through programs like Toys for Tots. It is my hope that during this holiday season, people will remember it's not about the gifts. It's about family, service and gratitude. We must continue to look out and help each other," she said at the drive.

Melania has hosted multiple card creating days with kids, where they will give those in need a card to be distributed throughout the nation's capital.

She has also visited with patients and staff at the Children's National hospital in D.C., continuing a tradition first started by first lady Bess Truman.
