It all starts with a shoe box—a simple gift that has the power to bring hope to struggling children around the world by letting them know they are loved and not forgotten. For many of these children, this will be the first gift they have ever received.
A project of international Christian relief and evangelism organization Samaritan's Purse, headed by Franklin Graham, Operation Christmas Child hand-delivers shoe boxes packed with school supplies, toys, necessity items and often a hand-written note of encouragement.
You can pack a box!—Fill shoe boxes with school supplies, toys, necessity items, candy and a letter of encouragement. Step-by-step shoe box packing instructions are available at www.samaritanspurse.org
