Samaritan's Purse has announced drop off locations for people to give "shoebox gifts" for children in need as part of Operation Christmas Child.
More than 4,500 will be collecting these donations of school supplies, hygiene products and toys during National Collection Week on Nov. 14-21. A guide for how to pack a shoebox gift can be found here.
“Now more than ever, children around the world need to know that God loves them and there is hope,” said Franklin Graham, president of Samaritan’s Purse. “A simple shoebox gift opens the door to share about the true hope that can only be found in Jesus Christ.”
Multiple locations are taking shoebox gifts throughout the Black Belt. Click here to find the nearest one to you.
