Operation Christmas Child

Operation Christmas Child provides an opportunity for people of all ages to be involved in a simple, hands-on project of Samaritan's Purse that focuses on the true meaning of Christmas - Jesus Christ - God's greatest gift.

How it works: Each shoebox is filled by Canadians with hygiene items, school supplies, toys, and candy, and is given to children regardless of gender, race, religion, or age.

Last year alone, more than 664,000 Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes were donated by Canadians for hurting children around the world! Praise God!
