OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD | OCTOBER COMMUNITY SERVICE

Once again, The elementary students are partnering with Samaritan’s Purse to share God’s love and the message of salvation with children around the world. Our goal is to pack 100 shoeboxes! 
There are two ways your family can help:
1. Pack a Shoebox
Families may fill a shoebox and return it to school by Friday, October 30. Completed boxes may be placed on the orange counter in the elementary hallway or given to your child’s teacher. 
The Operation Christmas Child website provides gift ideas, information, and videos. Families are also encouraged to include a personal letter and photo. You may choose to donate toward postage and track your box to its destination. 
2. Donate a NEW Small Toy
Families may also donate NEW small toys. These will be taken to a packing site and added to shoeboxes. A special toy is often considered the “wow” item in a box and may be the only toy a child receives. 
Boxes are available after school at pick up.  Look for ideas online at Samaritan's Purse.  Boxes need to be returned by Friday, October 30.
