T H E s A m A R i T A n ' s p u R s E p R o J E C T o p E R A T i o n C H R i s T m A s C H i L D The Samaritan's Purse project Operation Christmas Child collects shoebox gifts filled with fun toys, school supplies, and personal care items-and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God's love in a tangible way. For many of these children, the gift-filled box is the first gift they have ever received. Anyone can pack a shoebox. Individuals, families, churches, and groups fill empty shoeboxes with school supplies, personal care items, and fun toys, such as dolls or a soccer ball. During National Collection Week (November 13-20, 2023) Samaritan's Purse will collect the shoeboxes at more than 4500 drop offs. For more infrmation, see: www.SamaritansPurse.org/occ.
