Operation Christmas Child is one of my favorite charities! Every year, we celebrate the Holidays and it brings out a real feeling of Joy and wanting to do for others. If you feel the urge to make someone's Christmas amazing for not a ton of money then please check out this video and the Website link below.
This is one of their 2015 promotion videos via Youtube.
I have participated in Operation Christmas Child (sometimes known as Operation Shoe Box) the last couple of years and will continue to do so every year I am able. I love putting together a box of toys, necessities, letters, and pictures knowing that a child somewhere in the world is going to receive this box and the love that was put into it. If you want more information on this wonderful charity or would like to donate or participate you can go to this link: Operation Christmas Child
This year, I packed boxes with my AHG (American Heritage Girls) troop. For those that do not know about American Heritage Girls you can check them out via the link. :D
This was our end product! Over 30 Boxes for Boys and Girls of all ages!
You start by getting your shoe box and then labeling it with the Boy/Girl Tag and then marking an age (below).
We used a wide variety of toys/clothing/hygiene products
This is a Letter we let all of our girls fill out for our boxes so the children will know where we are located. I thought this was pretty neat.
With my little helper here, we packed 3 boxes together.
One of our finished boxes. I liked to pack them as full as possible! :p
