PACK A SHOE BOX
SEND GOOD NEWS AND GREAT JOY
โWe make a living by what we get. Weย make a lifeย by what we give.โ
Winston Churchill
Join us in blessing children in need around the world.
Operation Christmas Child started in 1993 with the idea of filling shoeboxes with gifts and surprising children around the world. Every year since, Samaritanโs Purse has collected shoebox gifts filled with toys, school supplies, and hygiene items for children around the world. Since 1993, more thanย 188ย million childrenย in more than 170ย countries and territories have received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox.
They ship these simple gifts to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease; and to children living on Native American reservations in the U.S.
You Can Help Too!
Don't just let us have all the fun. You can build your own boxes at home, or you can build one online.
