Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child Shoebox 2024

As the Thanksgiving season approaches, many families and children are giving thanks and giving back to children in need around the world through Operation Christmas Child.

Shoebox gifts prepared by generous donors and filled with toys, hygiene items, and school supplies may be dropped off now during National Collection Week, November 18-25.

We are excited to be a drop off location. Did you know that Samaritan’s Purse collected its 200-millionth shoebox last year? Bringing their total to over 220 millions shoe boxes collected world wide.

Operation Christmas Child has been collecting and delivering shoebox gifts to children worldwide for nearly three decades. In 2024, Operation Christmas Child hopes to collect enough shoeboxes to reach another 11 million children. This season, there’s still time for individuals, families, and groups to transform empty shoeboxes into fun gifts
