We donated 41 boxes to Operation Christmas Child in 2013; thank you so much to everyone who donated! Some kids somewhere will experience God’s love through your gift this Christmas. Praise God!

What Are We Doing with OCC?From November 4 to 15, 2013, we collected donations of NEW TOYS, SCHOOL SUPPLIES, HYGIENE ITEMS, etc. to send to Operation Christmas Child! Our collection dates were from Monday, November 4 – Friday, November 15 in Room C106 (Mrs. Platt's room), when it was open (could well be before school, brunch, lunch, or after school). We would also appreciate donations of shoeboxes, which will serve as the containers in which we will donate our items. Later, we packed each shoebox with the items that were donated, and they served as great gifts for kids everywhere!

Ideally, we would greatly appreciate if you could donate an entire package – a shoebox filled with a few toys, some important school supplies, hygiene items, and anything else you want to include. You may giftwrap the boxes if you wish to, but please do not seal the boxes as the contents must remain easily accessible to sorters at the shipping headquarters. This will make it easier for us to donate, since each box is already a complete unit, and it will allow you to even write a specific, personal note that the recipient just might respond to!
