St. Nicholas of Myra was a 3rd-4th century Bishop in a Greek colony in Asia Minor (now Turkey) who was noted for his generosity to the poor and some spectacular miracles. See the link below for more information. Santa Claus grew up from the legends surrounding St. Nicholas who not only generously gave gifts, but even raised three young boys to life.
