PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The wait is over! The third and final release of The Philly Specials is out now!

And to make this year's album extra special, the stars from the Christmas hits are teaming up with the Philadelphia School District to celebrate every public school student in the city this holiday season.



Dubbed "Operation Snowball," the citywide initiative aims to give a holiday gift to every kid in the district.

For the past four years, The Philly Specials have donated more than $4 million to various charities to support children in the Philadelphia area.



"We're trying to give a gift to every kid in the Philly public schools this holiday season. If that's not the holiday spirit, I don't know what is," Kelce said. "That's the Philadelphia spirit that I've come to know, love, and appreciate."

They plan to use the proceeds from sales of this year's album to support Operation Snowball.

But more than that, they hope that the project will "snowball" into a larger spirit of giving.

Kelce, as well as his former Eagles teammates Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata, were on Good Morning America Friday morning to talk about the new album.
