Opt for A Christmas Carol theme and unknowingly you would probably be doing a lot good to the society as a whole.
Many critiques are of the opinion that A Christmas Carol written by Charles Dickens turned out to be a great success primarily because it was written at a time when Christmas and its related traditions were on the verge of a decline.

Charles Dickens is literally credited for raising the festival from its ashes. Everyone waits eagerly till the fag end of the year for Christmas to arrive but the celebrations and the associated paraphernalia's had different connotations for different classes and groups of people. The prosperity of one class at the expense of pauperization of the poor was glaring, yet often overlooked.
Charles Dickens in his A Christmas Carol addressed the gravest issue of his genre and brought to the forefront the disparity that writ large in society and the indifference of the haves towards the have-nots. You could select this particular theme and even you could make a social statement through it. Stand up against social injustice and selfishness cause generosity and fellow feeling rides over all differences.
